Success!

Attempt #3 at making crossbody bags for the great granddaughters is a success!

Only three pockets on this one ( if I make another one, I might add a fourth pocket to the back) - two that shut with a snap and one that zips closed.  AND a matching coin purse ( first time for this pattern, too).  Still want to make a scrunchie out of the black fabric...maybe today.

I think I'm going to try bag #2

again but make it about 3/4" - 1" wider...that was the only disappointing part of it - it was a little too narrow to hold a cell phone.

One down and six? to go - the amount depends on whether I decide to also make them for my 4 Saginaw granddaughters and 1 granddaughter in law...we'll see.

And then I got the 'great' idea to make quilts for my friend and her husband for Christmas this year... we'll see if that actually happens - most likely it will be next year....got wayyy too much stuff to finish as it is - grkds t-shirt quilts for example - have one top waiting to be quilted but still others that haven't even been started!

And on that note, I need to get to working on something instead of sitting here.

Take care
