Messenger Bag


I got up at 6:30am, did a little farming on FaceBook and then started making this bag.  The pattern called for a pocket on the front, but I thought it looked better without it, so I left it off.  It also called for making it with strips of fabric, but I chose to use just one large cut of single fabric.  I really love this print and didn't want to add others that would take away from this party of bright flowers.  It also called for a button hole closure, but I didn't want to mess with a button hole on the flap, so I'm going to do a velcro closure.  I'll be making a trip to JoAnn's with coupon in hand sometime tomorrow.  This bright fabric just puts a smile on my face.  I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend.  Mine was very relaxing and I'm ready for work in the morning.....well, sort of......LOL!!!!
