Manhattan Bag 1/30/15

Manhattan Bag
1/30/15

 It’s practically done.  I still need a button in the front and a magnetic button inside to keep it closed but I can use it now and no one would be wiser.   I like it but I think there are a few tweaks that need to be done.  I do not like the inside pocket… I think I read the instructions wrong or I misunderstood but the inside pocket has the wrong side of the fabric facing out.  🙁  Also the inside lining seems a bit big which makes the bag a little bulky.  I am planning on doing this bag again and I think making the lining a little smaller than the outside would smooth out the inside part.  I think one of the free Craftsy bag classes talked about that.

I haven’t done anything on Tell It To The Stars. But I’ve got the final fabric pieces for my secret project and materials for a new bag keep arriving from online shops.  Woohoo!  I will not be able to play with it this weekend because the family is going to Vegas this weekend!  Whoop Whoop!!!!  It’s going to be a quick trip to get away and I plan on hitting a quilt shop or two tomorrow.  So stay tuned for Sunday Stash!

Happy Quilting everyone!
Melanie
