Bess just had to be in on the action (after all, Rumbles was in the last post!)
The satchel on the left is from a pattern called Handy Satchel by Catherine McMurray, published in Australian magazine Handmade (vol 27 no 9 2010). The bag on the right is from the Friends Hanging Out Together pattern ( I didn't do the stitchery from the pattern) in Creating Country Threads vol 10 no 12 2010.
This bag was made for Kieran's girlfriend at the time, Tyla Adams. There is a pocket on the front.
This bag is about 26 x 36 cm in size.
The satchel was just a spare bag, made so I could try out the pattern - I sold it in 2014 at the annual car-boot sale at school to one of my pupils, Kimberley Clearwater.
Has a pocket on the back. The satchel is about 40 x 43 cm in size. Fabrics were bought at Spotlight (the hearts) and the rest are from Kits n Things.
