Megan, quit stressing. Remember it's a theme of “ What I hold dear” - you do it however you want. The person receiving it will like it because SHE didn't have to make it.. :thumbup: Everyone likes to receives gifts.
I'm making mine out of fabric I have plenty of, so if I should really like it, I can make ME one..lol Have fun with it.

I am worried I will make a bag I really like, but them my partner won't like. I like green what if they hate green?
I have so many ideas it would look more like an art bag. I am torn between artsy eclectic, and function and beauty. Anyone else having this problem? I don't want to make something my partner doesn't like. Its a bit of that people pleaser coming out making things a lot harder than they need to be!

Okay, here's a afew pics of "What I hold dear".
Thought I ws finished, but there is just one more thing I need to do. Will keep that a surprise for the recipient.
The things are I hold dear, are our dogs, and the freedom to express ourselves however we want, and I just love the Christmas season, and childrens ability to look at everything with wonder, so on went Santa and the reindeer.Over here that means the beach and everything that goes with it, I also collect small Christmas trees, so there was another outside pocket. The handles were santa under palm trees, in boats, plating golf, relaxing in general.
Inside there are a number of pockets, we must store things, but the fabric is a gold dragon with red flames. I adore dragons and the mystery that surrounds them. They are meant to be extremely nuturing and loyal, so I thought this also was appropriate.Okay, book written, lecture over, here's the pics.......
