I've been learning lots about making bags.

These are for 2 little girls turning 4


This one is for a bigger girl turning 24


And these ones are for me!!

Happiness is .... Russian Dolls in the lining.


Mine were made using this tutorial.

Have a great weekend!!

    Nice looking bags. I started sewing bags at the end of last year ... so much fun!

    I have to share a brilliant free bag pattern with you: http://www.ottobredesign.com/fi/kaavat/pdf/purse_EN_5-07.pdf It goes together beautifully.

    I love them all!! and your choice of fabric is fantastic. The little owners of those bags must be really happy with them. The tutorial doesn't look too complicated; I should give it a try...
