MNBarb said... Oh yes, the matchy-ness dilemma. I like the bag and I love the jacket. If you wear them together or separately they are both great. 10/10/10 9:33 PM

But in time and with fresh eyes, some of the problems may hold less weight and you can see the beauty of your creation. Sewing bags, with all of the layers, can be challenging for a home machine, no doubt! Also, sometimes I also find the instructions lacking -- there is so much cutting out and fiddling with main fabric, lining, and interfacing and many pieces. Your jacket and your bag are terrific. Believe it. 10/11/10 8:51 AM
