Handmade Christmas #2

Disclaimer: I take rotten photos of bags.

Made from the free Margaret Sling Bag pattern by oh, fransson!. Great pattern. Simple, clear and well photographed instructions. My only problem was that for some reason page 2 of the pattern kept coming up blank, even after some very kindly help from Elizabeth.

It's larger than I expected, but I'm happy with how my first lined bag has turned out. And it was made for my good and busy friend who has three kids under four-years-old. So perfect for toting around all the paraphernalia that goes hand-in-hand with small children.


Next on the list ... a crocheted Sackboy.

I've been planning to sit down when I have some free time and make one of these too. It's really cute! Did you make the long handle (cross-body) version?

I made that one for my sister -- so perfect! I have pictures of my fabric (fool that I am, I didn't take any of the bag before wrapping it up...) over at my place.
