Margaret Sling Bag

So, i FINALLY finished this bag that i was meant to be making as part of a March sewing challenge!! I definitely can see now i was being over ambitious to think i would get this bag sewn in March as i had waaaaay too much on already! But, i finished it, with a few challenges along the way and i think i might make another one soon {gasp}! Im not too sure i like the fabric i chose and i have some yummy fabric waiting so i might sew another one for me to use...or maybe the fabric will grow on me - who knows!

Here is the tutorial, and free pattern in case you would like to make one too!!

  7. Looks great! Mine is supposed to be for the same challenge and still not made so you're doing better than me. Maybe I'll try today...

    Thanks for the inspiration!
