What a great bag, I have the same pink ribbon fabric, however, I used mine in a Bow Tucks bag trimmed in pink. I like the fact that you used two colors on the inside, nice touch.

Great bag!

Those colors do pop and I love how you really customized the bag!

Wow that is very nice job,give me some ideals for some of mine too little jeans.

Beautiful job. I make denim purses and have put a fabric strip through the loops and tied a bow. Any chance you could send me the price you charge? Reply to my personal e-mail.

That is another awesome bag. It wouldn't be white for long if I had it tho... sadly it would be dirty way too soon. I am always tossing my bags here and there. I definitely need the dark ones. LOL

Love your bag! This is the first one I've seen of yours. Do you have others posted on the QB? Do you think you might do a tute for us? I have lots of jeans without legs just waiting for inspiration and I think you've given it to me. The inside is stumping me though......

awesome bag Jill!!

I have posted allot, but it is easier to see all I have made on my Flickr page www.flickr.com/photos/vanuatu_jill
I have never done a tutorial, but have explained the process a few times on this thread and a couple others. if I get time, maybe I can try a tutorial sometime. Thanks!

Looked at your flicker photos---just beautiful!! Where could I find the explanation you posted on the QB? Hope you get the time to do a tute. I will be watching this thread. Thanks in advance!
