Barbados Bag
 

This is the first purse - tote bag I've made.
All 24 plus steps, 3.5 days of subzero weather in Michigan helped. It was a challenge that turned out beautiful and not in the UFO mystery box. There was also a review on line that really helped. Follow one step at a time and you can do make this bag. Can't wait for its coming out day. Thanks for looking

Its beautiful well worth your time

great finish.

Oh I love that bag and the fabrics you chose is exactly what I would have chosen..great job!

Nice looking bag! I have yet to dip my toes into making a bag/purse but I do have a pattern for a small one. The fabrics you chose for this are perfect.

Nice looking bag. Your material pick is great.

Nice bag, I like the fabric.
We had the same cold in MN, but I didn't get anything sewn.

I like that. Nice job...may have to try making bags/purses again. Way back in the 70's I made tapestry flapped bags, but yours looks infinitely better!!

looks really useful

A very pretty, well made bag.

Good job!!

Well done, and pretty fabrics!

Nice job!
I have made the same pattern and I find it a very handy size bag.

Beautiful bag and congratiulations! Good for you that you tried something new and stuck with it....

Beautiful bag and fabric choices.

Love it. Beautiful color. BrendaK

Nice job. Love the fabric.

You arose to the challenge and made it to the finish line....:) Enjoy your lovely tote bag!

I have had that pattern for a few years. Now that I see yours I’m inspired to make mine! Good job!!

Very pretty bag. Nice work

Very nice!

A wonderful project - and complete no less. I've been quilting a lot too, since this cold winter has kept me in so much. Am enjoying it in the best way possible.

Congratulations on your
lovely finish.

Beautiful bag. I've been wanting to make one. Right now I don't feel like quilting. I'm in the mood to make other things.

Very pretty and well done.

Gorgeous bag! I love making bags, they are so fun and there's nothing like that feeling when someone says, "what a great bag, where did you buy it?" and you get to say, "thank you, I made it!" I love the butterfly batik fabric

Thank you Whitney60 for including a picture of the pattern. Great purse.

Beautiful job. I started one in brown batiks for fall. Misplaced it and just recently found it. I probably should finish it and start one for spring. I love the size and shape of the bag. Your colors are perfect. You have inspired me to pull mine out and finish!

Very nice bag and I love the colors also!

Very nice. i want one!

Beautiful bag and great choice of colors. Connecting Threads is selling a kit right now with fabric, hardware and zippers in a blue and green combination. I've been considering it to get the tote bag making experience.

Great job! It's beautiful.
