After being away from my sewing machine for ages I spent an hour or so whipping up this cute bag. I found the pattern at
Show us your Workings. It's a very easy pattern and sewed up in no time. As soon as Mum and my daughter saw it they asked for one each. They are going to the Easter Show on Tuesday and would like to use them. We decided it would be extremely hard to pickpocket, my son thought he'd have a go and put his hand where he thought the opening was only to find his fingers popped out under the small handle on the outside of the bag. I am thinking of using demin to make my daughter's bag out of demin, instead of sewing the handle seams on the inside I am thinking of doing it on the outside and fraying the seams. Think it will look good. Photos to come.
I've been using mine to carry my knitting on the train, I'm back to knitting socks. The bag is almost perfect size, just need another 1 or 2 cm length in the bag section so that the needles fit in perfectly.
