The bag Ali made is why I don't make bags. Because it is perfect and I doubt I could ever reach that level. Now I don't have to even try, because I own this one. Lucky me indeed!
If you are interested in knowing more about the gorgeous Gudrun fabrics Ali used then please go here and read her original post about the bag. Her photos are way better than mine too.
The bag has a magnetic closure on the flap, an inset zippy pocket inside, and a lovely deep pocket right across the outside. Ali also sent me that lovely notepad that you get a sneaky peek of in the outside pocket.
A huge thank you to Ali for being so generous as to give away such a beautiful make. I will love it, and beat off all people who try to take it. Just saying, because I am off to the seaside tomorrow to meet up with my Brit Bee friends.

You lucky thing, that is a one gorgeous bag. It shouldn't put you off trying to make bags though, if you can quilt you can definitely make nice bags.
ReplyDeleteI saw that you had won that and got all excited for you!
ReplyDeleteIt's wonderful! Have a nice time at the seaside and remember my family motto: It's never too cold for an ice-cream!
ReplyDeleteThis bag is gorgeous! I love bags with lots of pockets.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bag - keep those mucky bees' paws off!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous bag. Watch it doesn't get swiped this weekend! Di x
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on winning that beautiful bag!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great bag! Is that her own design? Or do you know if there's a pattern for it. I love the zippered pocket inside.
ReplyDeleteIt looks fabulous, lucky indeed, enjoy your trip to the seaside tomorrow! : )
ReplyDeleteSo happy you won it Susan although I am ever so slightly JEALOUS!! Having received a lovely make from Ali (courtesy of your goodself) I know she is a fab maker. You better stick it up your jumper when you meet the Brit Beeers otherwise you will be fighting them off. Have a great weekend BTW.
ReplyDeleteI'll tell you to pop your bags in the back, then drive off before you get in!
ReplyDeleteYou keep that beauty tucked under your arm wherever you go...those so-called friends sound devious! Enjoy the beach, I'm off to my little corner of sand today!
