New Bag is Done

An article by Rachel    1 Comment

The whole thing came together rather easily. I used the Phoebe bag pattern by artsy-crafty babe. The pattern is definitely one of the better free patterns out there. I wouldn’t hesitate to purchase more of her patterns if the need arises. I’d only change one thing. I put the second half of the magnet snap 2″ down on the body. I think 1.25″ would be better. The tab crushes the top of the bag just a wee bit.

I used Heather Bailey’s scrap flower tutorial for the brooch. I sewed a safety pin to the flower and pinned the flower to the bag. If it bothers me, I can easily remove it.
