Karla Kizer said... "When I first started reading them, it seemed that the pattern called for you to sew the short ends of the bottom between the straps on the front." That part of the directions threw me at first, too. Other than that, I thought the directions were good. Mine is almost done... 3/1/04 4:16 PM

Karla Kizer said... I should have commented earlier on what a beautiful print you used for your bag. I don't think I've seen a tapestry fabric like it anywhere. Nice choice! 3/2/04 6:15 AM

AuntieShel said... Oooh, love your bag--the pansy fabric is beautiful--I love pansies. When I first saw this bag made up (in a fabric store) I thought the handles seemed short, but the bag will hold a lot, as you pointed out, so maybe, when full, you wouldn't want to sling it over your shoulder, as longer handles would allow. Great bag, thank you for review. 3/4/04 7:47 AM
Diane E said... Hi, I'm about to make this bag and your review is very helpful to me - the picture of the inside helped me select lining fabric (I wasn't sure whether it would show from the outside or not) and I love the key hook - thanks very much! 3/16/04 4:19 PM
CatherineN said... Wonderful Bag! It is so interesting how everyon's version of this pattern looks so different. Such pretty fabric. 3/18/04 5:19 PM
Julia Graham said... This really is a helpful review -- I'm making the bag right now and your description of how to put in the bottom is very clear (more so than Loes'!). 4/23/05 10:37 PM
Debster said... Good review. It made me feel as if I could work with this pattern because of your many suggestions and creative alterations. Tx 3/6/06 9:30 PM
