Finished Project

I am not as cack handed as I thought I was...look!!!

Yep - made by me....aided by this tutorial....

I could be critical about the fact that the denim broke 3 needles on my machine....that the lining doesn't sit flat inside the bag...that the stiching is a bit wonky...that the button is off centre....the loop to big....but I won't...cos I made a bag!!!!!

Think I'm trying to run before I walk - I have a head full of ideas - but don't have the competance to match - so denim was probably not the wisest choice of fabric for a 1st attempt. Not with my billy basic little machine either, but hey ho its done now and fully useable!!
I've cut out a couple of other little projects too. Just need the time (child free preferably - ha!) to get on.

Well done! It's a great bag and I love the lining.
It's so much easier if the children are out the way isn't it? I always find myself rushing, when I've got a few minutes peace and of course that's when you make mistakes, lol.

Hi there I have just started my third bag to date. Am fortunate enough to belong to a craft group and one of the members makes bags all of the time. She has been a great help and I am now looking for fabric for number 4. Dev X

How gorgeous is that bag. Your machine might be Billy Basic, but your sewing certainly isn't. Well done.
