Snazzy New Bag for Bailey

Bailey picked out fabric for this great bag a few weeks ago, and while she was away at camp I surprised her by finishing it! Now it goes everywhere with her. It was surprisingly quick to make after the gathering of the strips was finished. It is the Snazzy Bag by Lila Tueller, made using Happy fabrics.

Maggie May Bag

Over the weekend, in between the shop hop customers, this bag pattern (The Maggie May Bag)kept tugging at me from the pattern wall. So, I grabbed some fabric and took it home with me on Saturday. A few days later, and only 2 or 3 hours of sewing time, here is what I have! This was possibly the easiest bag I've ever made, and I'm not saying that lightly. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it went together and how easy to cut out the pieces it was. The pattern utilizes 1.5" strips from a honey bun, and 1 honey bun could make 3 bags. Add a fun button, and you've got a great hand bag!
