Messenger Bag




I love my new bag. It is so happy. I really like the fully lined interior and I found a good use for the scraps from my kitchen curtains (my first solo sewing venture), which matched so well, you'd think I'd planned it. I used this excellent tutorial. I omitted the short straps (which is really a genius idea if you have a stroller that gets frequent use on excursions) and added interior pockets. My bag is a bit floppy- I may have to use interfacing or a stiffer material next time.

  1. This bag is lovely! I have found that a stiff interfacing totally helps with the floppy problem.
