I've Been Sew Busy

After getting inspired at Fabric Depot on Monday, and with a little help from my mom, this is what I did on Tuesday. I call it, the Margaret MEGAN Sling Bag. this one has the cross body strap design.

I was so excited to find this really cute flower button to add to it.

On Wednesday I completed the Margaret ALLYSON Sling Bag with the shorter shoulder strap.
Personally, I think this button was just made for the bag.

Finally, on Thursday, I completed the Margaret ANGELA Sling bag, again, with the shorter shoulder strap and funky button.

The pattern and instructions for the Margaret Sling Bag can be found here, or by googling "margaret sling bag." The instructions are straightforward and easy to follow. There are pictures for every step.

I have so enjoyed my own Margaret Sling Bag and get compliments on it all the time. I hope Megan, Allyson and Angela also enjoy their bags. It's a fun and functional bag that might just get you a loads of compliments too.
