I finished this this morning and gifted to a friend for her birthday - she loved it, and my friends asked if I was taking orders
I sure don't make it easy on myself when I try things for the first time - I had to go and use home dec fabric and faux leather trim - which certainly made it interesting on some of the thicker parts when sewing...
Learned some things with this one - like I need an industrial machine if I am going to continue making bags
I'll be making more of these...
