Heres the finished article. I am really pleased with the results. The inside of the bag that can be seen just peeping out of the interior of the bag is lined with a lovely pink polka dot material. I can't take credit for designing it, I used a pattern from a book called the Bag Bible. My sewing machine was my mothers and is at least fifty years old, but it shows that you don't always need the latest gadgets, although of course such an old and basic machine wouldn't allow me to make anything too fancy.
I can't wait to get started on the next one. I think I will stick to this particular pattern for the time being until I really get used to it and don't have to keep unpicking my mistakes!
I love the fact that no-one else in the world has got this particular bag in this particular material - only me! And theres a great sense of satisfaction in havng made it myself, mistakes and all!
