Handbag for Charity

Thank you all so very much! I appreciate your wonderful comments. I was watching Vera Bradley bags being sold on the shopping channel last night and hopefully this one commands that kind of prices too. LOL!

That is a beautiful bag and should raise a lot of money for the cause. I love the inner pockets too. Since I began sewing last year I've made all my purses. I'm on the 4th iteration now and finally I have it pretty close to perfect. I love to make my own purse because I can design it to hold exactly the stuff that I carry. It's completely customized to me and me alone!

Hi Girls,
The name of the pattern is #ps033 Islander Bag By Quilts Illustrated. It was designed by Penny Sturges. These are the same people who designed the bow tucks bag and tote. I personally found this one on ebay for a fraction of the normal cost of a pattern, so it was a win win situation. LOL!
I did change out the handle to a purchased fake leather one I liked with the print. I think just little things like that make the bags a little more dressy.
I hope you can find a copy of your own. It is a nice pattern.
Thanks to everyone for their nice comments. I do appreciate it.
