I signed up to be a pattern tester over at Sewsweetness. Sara has been making a ton of bags and adding the patterns to her shop. I really like her bags and her patterns. They are really straight forward and easy to follow.
My daughter had been begging for a "purse" to put around her neck (messenger bag style). When Sara posted this bag, I knew it would be perfect. My daughter's favorite color is yellow and she picked out this Amy Butler fabric from my stash.
This bag has tons of pockets on the inside and the outside.
My first time putting a zipper pocket inside a bag. It didn't come out exactly how is was supposed to, but I like the yellow peeking out from the edges. (I do know what I did wrong here, but I like it so I didn't fix it!)
My daughter LOVED it! I was really happy with how it turned out. If you're interested, you can go to
Sewsweetness to see the bag made by tons of testers and to order it. If you're looking for a bag pattern, she has some great one. I've been eyeing the Aeroplane bag!
