Embellished Book Bag


Here is a neat way to make a book bag using decorative placemats. Can't decide if I want to use the brown ribbon for shoulder strap or not. Should I use another color?

My Newest Pattern - The Paris Bag

Image
As most of you know that follow me I love to design patterns that are FUN, FAST & FUNCTIONAL. The really driving force behind that is -- I know that we don't have a lot of time to SEW so when we do find the time I want it to be productive.  Nothing says FUN better than finishing a project - am I RIGHT?  This design is from 1 yard of fabric and you get a bag plus a mini snap bag!  If your like me you love to collect fat quarters and 1 yard of beautiful cottons fabric. This bag also makes a great gift for a baby shower - it can be used a diaper bag and then when the child is older they can use it as their book or school bag.  It works great for the gym, grocery bag or a day trip.  It can easily be made in 2 to 3 hours.  I think it takes more time to iron on the Pellon interfacing to stabilize the material than it does to construct it.  I hope that this pattern becomes one of your favorites to make as it has become one of my favorite designs.
