The Willa Bag

This afternoon I sat down with some paper and came up with this bag.  When I first started figuring it out I actually had something quite different in mind but halfway through I changed my mind.  I'm so glad I did because I LOVE this bag!  I think I'll tweak the next one a tiny bit, I want to do the pleats a tiny bit differently.  I named this one after my Mom!  Well sort of, her name is Wilma but I went with Willa instead.  I think one of my favorite things in this design is its size.  It's not too big, not too small, just right.  The perfect medium sized bag.  Maybe I'll have to "mess" one up a tiny bit so I can justify keeping one ;)




And how fun is the fabric?  I bought it a few days ago thinking it would make a perfect Spring bag, I think it works great!

  3. I love love love LOVE that fabric. I love just going in to stores to look at their fabrics... I hope someday soon I'll know how to use a sewing machine to make some of your wonderful things!

    I'd love a pattern for this purse... it looks like something I'd love!
