My bag is in pieces waiting for me to put it back together again!! I think I get it now (for the most part), but I had the same thoughts...if this is what Amy calls easy, what are the expert patterns like?!lroghair/lparkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07618038390444041923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3428433493521342909.post-18239021443576324342012-02-26T22:50:38.277-05:002012-02-26T22:50:38.277-05:00I've made 3 of these bags now and it is a very...I've made 3 of these bags now and it is a very challenging project. I put the side pockets on the inside on the first one, don't even ask me why. It is a favorite with many of my friends because it is sooooo big. One of my friends calls it her Mary Poppins bag. If you try it again, it will be much easier, I promise. Yours looks good though, and no one will notice the mistakes, even though they scream out to you.Patricia Hodgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3428433493521342909.post-9213432955731484192012-02-21T11:57:27.027-05:002012-02-21T11:57:27.027-05:00It is SO much easier the second time around!!!

Also, the second go - when you put your pockets on the inside run a seam halfway so they don't flop open - that was one of the issues I had with my first attempt. xoxoxoxoxoxoxo Make another. It really is easier the second go. I PROMISE!!! (Ive made six)Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07346696791515719450noreply@blogger.com
