lindrix said... Thanks Ann. I hadn't realized the size of this bag until you pointed this out. Pretty fabric!

Danvillegirl said... Glad to read your review. I just finished making mine and hope to post soon. I like the fabric you chose. I learned a lot from making this pattern. 3/19/06 4:25 PM
PhyllisC said... Ann, I like the way there is a 50's lady between each fold - was that serendipity or intentional? So cute! 3/19/06 4:52 PM

PhyllisC said... I really like the bag that you made because it has women on it and only women use it.

KarmenG said... Beatuiful Bag Ann! Love your choice of fabric. I did create a scaled down version of this pattern bag, photo of which I will add to my previous review. I like the scaled down size (width and length) better than the original. However, I agree with you- this is a feminine, and very cool handbag. 3/19/06 6:06 PM
Mary Stiefer said... Love the fabric. What fun. I'm with you on making something like this a bit smaller. An evening bag would be lovely. 3/19/06 6:49 PM

PhyllisC said... Can't decide which one I like best! 3/19/06 9:10 PM
touran said... Ok - the pink leather reminds me of candy. It's absolutely gorgeous (sorry about the pun). Just fab. 3/19/06 9:49 PM

Frogstitcher said... I'm sure that anything you make would never look like "happy hands at home". Love both versions - fabulous. 3/20/06 9:06 AM
Mary Stiefer said... Okay - I'm back in with another comment on the 2nd bag. Fabulous. Love the small clutch. 3/20/06 9:23 AM

Lhan said... I love this bag! Well, both of them really, although pink is not my colour. You have made a great job of these, and the review is very helpful. I have recently made bags for the first time, and can see it becoming a passion, as I especially love large ones. That fabric is a hoot. 3/24/06 1:49 AM
Karin Mantefors said... I´m almost ready with my butterfly bag and am amazed over how different fabrics can chance the look of it. I love your fabric! 3/26/06 3:46 PM
Deepika said... Ann this is a lovely bag. I love the clutch more though. Its adorable. Makes me want to pull out my sewing machine, dust it off and start sewing again! 3/27/06 8:14 AM
