Margaret Bag

Say Hello to my new bag!!!

I just love it!!! I use the tutorial from Oh Fransson Margaret Sling Bag.

Yes, I saw that Elizabeth has retired the pattern, but I wanted to make sure to give credit where credit is due. If you can check out her blog Oh Fransson, her quilts are amazing. I love her Tokyo Subway Map quilt. I only wish that some day my quilts will be as good.

This is the second bag that I have made, and I must say I really like making bags/purses. I'm sure it won't be my last.

Things I love about this bag:

I love the fact that it's a cross body sling bag. With two little boys always at my sides it nice to know that this bag is not going to fall off my shoulder

I love how big and roomy it is. I can easily fit everything inside that I need to take on my day to day adventures.

I love the material. I have had this material for couple of years now and it just seemed perfect for making a bag. plus I didn't have to buy anything new to make this bag-always a plus in my book

Lastly-I love this button. I just think it's pretty

My First Bag

This is the first bag that I have ever made. Janna Welker taught a group of ladies from our ward how to make this at our last craft club. It's her own pattern.

I had so much fun. I plan on making a couple more of these and then hopefully making a couple different sorts of of bags.
