eeek two months since I blogged!
Yes I am still here but work has taken over my life at the moment. I'm finding it difficult to get my head round crafting but one of my workmates asked if I would make a bag for her so having chosen a pattern (which was a freebie I had from the internet), she went and bought some gorgeous fabric from Liberty and off I went.
The fabric pack came in 5-7 inch strips so in order to get a piece to fit my pattern template, I stitched the strips together.
The bag has a really interesting top edge shape as well as an outside pocket...
...plus a couple of nice roomy inside pockets (you can just see I did some random quilting on the inside).
And finally the finished item. I may have to make another one for me.

Wondered where you had been Carol ! That's a fab bag do you have a link to the free pattern?

Well done Carol, you've done an amazing job on piecing that gorgeous fabric together and it looks like it could be reversible too.
