opps!

Ok, this is kinda funny...I forgot people could leave messages here on my blog...so there were a few messages left awhile ago and I had no idea until now!  So sorry!  Thanks to those of you who left me notes!  They were fun to read!

We are still at the cabin for the rest of the week...this is a picture of me on our boat...my daughter and I were bored so we were playing with the camera!  

Vacation

Well, we are on vacation at our cabin in Northern Minnesota...It is beautiful here.  The only bad thing is that I can not bring my sewing machine.  However, I did bring some fabric and plan to do some cutting out.  I would love to get bunches of the sugar loaf pouches cut, along with a few other fun small items.  We will see!  

New Bag...

I am working on a tote bag for my sister...it is her Birthday!  Yea!  I just love this Amy Butler Fabric!  

I really need to get a tote bag and the man bag going this week!  

The Amy Butler Bag is DONE!!!!!!

It is finally DONE! 

The Amy Butler Messenger Bag!  

The outer closure

The front pockets and zipper pocket on the front flap

The front pockets are lined in pink

This is the back of the bag and below you can see the back zippered pocket up close

Here is the inside of the bag...plenty big enough for a laptop and notebook

Here is the cool tool pocket incorporated into the finished bag

Look how roomy it is 

It is a really neat bag when done...lots of complicated parts, but very detailed when done.  I have to say I am glad to be done with this one!  :)  Now on to something easier, not quite so mind boggling!  

The tool pocket...

This is one of the neatest parts of this bag...the interior tool pocket

It has four pencil spots and one larger pocket

The outer shell is done!

Here is the exterior of the bag....

 this picture shows the zipper pocket on the inside of the front flap...

This is a close up of the zipper pocket...

On to the lining!
