Gotta brand new bag...

I did it. I made a whole bag all by my little selfsies.

First I found the pattern on http://www.burdastyle.com/patterns

A lot of nifty looking patterns for either a couple bucks or completely free!

this was the bag I wanted to make, called a traveler's bag:

So I printed out the pattern pages and arranged it in order

then i taped it together and cut the pieces out

Then I assembled the whole thing, threw the zipper in (its not perfect but it works) and voila! My own bag!

Nifty spiffy, eh?

So there you have it, My first bag!

And this was Roy watching me the whole time wondering why I wasn't paying more attention to him

And that's all I've got for you today! Anyone got any exciting weekend plans coming up? Matt and I are going to venture out Sunday for a hike--yippee! But he's working late tonight and tomorrow...maybe I'll tackle the dining table and chairs, then...stay tuned!
