So pretty. I've not used the iron-on fleece so thank you for that heads-up.

Forgot to say that I used a magnetic closure instead of a button (I'm sure you saw that in the photo) and I used plastic canvas for the bottom and made a sleeve like a pillowcase for the plastic canvas to fit into.

Very pretty. Aren't they addicting?

Beautiful result!

Love that material....my favorite colors! Great job!

Beautiful bag and your fabrics are great!

Although I love all of the bowtucks I've seen, I really would like to make one somewhat less "girly"....without the bow ties themselves! Would that make me some kind of traitor? :?

No you can do what you want as long as you like it , its for you and you make what you like. what I do if it is for me.

i too thought the fleece on both outside and inside was too much so i use fleece on the outside and the same pellon that i use for the pockets to do the lining i also made my straps a little longer and a bit narrower dont care for such a wide strap on my purses. i think the reason they want you to use wof for the inside pockets is so you dont end up short when you do your sectioning some will do less others will do more if you do more it would make it short and not catch in your side seams but yes wof fab is a bit much. i do love your fabrics you used nice colors 2 of my favs

Very pretty I love the color you picked
