All of them are so cute. I love the flowery one. Your billfolds are great too. Great job on all. Thanks for sharing.

TIP READ the directions closely! It isn't hard to make but it would have saved me from ripping a couple times!!

I was almost out of fabric so my handle is narrower, I only put pockets on the back of the inside, goofed and put my buttonhole loop on the front. I want to add something to the pocket, a butterfly pin maybe.

I like your idea of the outside pocket as the back with the button on the other side. I plan to make mine that way and add a tassle to the button to give it some glam.

I am sorry the polka dot came through as navy but is actually black. It is from WalMart. It is regular stock, $4.44 yd. The white polka dot is the same fabric. It is a little heavier weight. The white has been on clearance here. The polka dots are Cranston Print Works. www.cranstonvillage.com. I hope this helps.

Ladies, the pattern calls for pellon fleece 987f. I used hvy wt pellon fleece for the outer bag and the 987f for the lining and pockets. It gives the bag a little more body. Also use the 987f in the handles. I also bought some foam board at Hobby Lobby and cut that for my bottom. I have used acrylic cut to size for purse bottoms but the foam seems to work just fine. Just be sure it is the heavier foam bd. Everyone have fun making those bags.
