I signed up for the Newbie Sewers Bag Challange, and think I bit off a little more than I could chew when I picked the Melly & Me Toffee Apple Bag. Lisa did such a spectacular job on hers that I was totally inspired... that got me through the first few pages of instructions, but I came a bit unstuck trying to attach the bag bottom to the rest of the bag. Eventually I got there, and ended up with a bag which I think will hold a purse and mobile, so I guess that's success! I used some very fine drawstring cord which isn't really cutting it, so I may replace that I think. And I am quite happy with the fabric combination, even if it does look a little bit like a pot pouri explosion!!!!!
There hasn't been too much other sewing going on, I'm a little distracted by the olympics... and the fact that it is practically sub zero degrees at the sewing station/ garage. I am fairly determined to get back in the groove, and have lots of things on my to do list! Hopefully this weekend will bring some opportunities to get out there. I can only hope.

Its gorgeous! Well done! Bet you get heaps of comments with your bag when out and about!
It's brilliant! Love the colours.
I like it! :D I am tempted to attempt one now. Too many projects, so little time...
It looks fantastic, congrats on such a great job.
