Thanks, I have 2 patterns, the large one and the small one. I look at the pattern and feel over whellmed, but now, I may be able to go step by step and get r done!

I havent purchased pattern yet - wasnt sure if I could actually make one - you tute is a big help though . Love the extra detailing around bottom and the name one it. - I was wondering if you could use the desigh that you did around bottome for the strings on side and maybebe even the handles. Thanks for sharing. I have bookmarked site cheryl :thumbup:

Looking back at your tutorial, when putting in the inside pockets, do we go only by the pattern size for the inner pockets or can we make them how tall from the bottom of the bag we desire, and what is a good distance to stop at from the top of the bag on the inside? Sorry if I make no sense.

You can make them however you like. I would get a newspaper and cut the size you want just to try it out. Also, make sure the top of you inside pocket is at least 1 1/2 to 2 inches from the top of the bag.

Keep in mind that your button should be above the top of your inside pockets where you sew it on.

I thought the pattern instructions left a lot to be desired but I was able to muddle through. Once you get one done, the second, third and so on are a breeze to make.

And I love this purse. All the pockets are FAB!!!

Have always wanted to make one of the bags, after seeing your pictorial I ordered the pattern. Your page is bookmarked now just waiting to receive the pattern. Can start to pick out material. And I have lots of pony beads. Yippee/

Ok I am in the midst of this all. lol... I have everything cut out, bottoms, tops, and outer pocket finished. Now I need to know do I stitch together my inside lining to bag, and then add inside pockets all around, and stitch up the pockets to only my lining or through the lining and outer bag too? I am getting there. Just need a little clarity at the end here. I hope this is ok?
