Finally tackled the bag I have admired on this board for so long. Although it took me a while, once I understood the directions the process was pretty easy. I am sure my daughters will be receiving one for the holidays!

Thanks everyone for your great inspiration!

Beautiful fabric and you did a wonderful job! I wouldn't have known it was your first one if you wouldn't have mentioned it. :)

Nice job on a pretty purse! :thumbup: :thumbup:

Nice job & I love your fabric choices!

Pretty! Love the colors.

I am wanting to get that pattern and do some. Is that the mini or the regular size. I don't know which pattern to buy.

This is the regular size. I found the pattern on Amazon for $7.99. Good luck ... it is a great bag and not difficult to make.

Great job! That is so pretty ... I love the paisley.

I read the directions and it seemed confusing to me, I will have to re read them again and give it a try!

Some sections didn't seem to make sense until I had the bag in front of me. Please just PM me if you want some help.

I have both of the patterns, and like the mini the best for a handbag. The regular size was to big for my liking, but would make a great diaper bag.

Very nice job, love your fabrics

Great job! O have that pattern and several piles of fabric to make a purse..haven't tried it yet!

Lovely fabric and bag, I am yet to make a bag,they look very complicated to me lol.

Wow! You certainly did a very nice job for this to be your first bag. :thumbup: I love it. You used gorgeous fabric. Thank You for sharing.

Great job!

Awesome job! I bought the pattern a month ago, but am still scared to try it!

Love the colors... I have the pattern but have not made it yet. Great Job....

They are a lot of fun to make.They always turn out so pretty!

So pretty, like the colors! Great job!

Very pretty :D:D:D

Very nice, love the fabrics!! I had to reread the instructions when I was making the first one, I like pictures with written instructions. It seems to help me to compare what I'm doing to the pattern.
