Bag month

Ok so the month is nearly over. I had visions of making a couple of bags this month but this one took it out of me.

I used Nikki's large satchel and tote pattern with some yardage fabric and some much heavier vinyl than my last bag. Even using a leather needle and my walking foot it was super hard to sew through but I made it.

 

I just have to top stitch around. Top of the bag and do the strap but I've run out of black thread so that will have to wait. Thanks Cam you for organizing bag month at least you pushed me to get something finished.

Nice work Cass! I haven't given up hope in finishing mine before the end of the month...I still have 2 days to go!!! Can you bring it for a sticky to craft next week?

Oooh that's lovely Cass - I too love the Yardage Design on it - very nice.

Brave girl, Cass - VINYL!!! I could show you a few modifications that would make it easier to construct in such a heavy fabric.... remind me next time. :)

Love it Cass! The YD fabric is a perfect match with the leather look. Don't leave it too long to finish it off.
