Un-paper bag #2

The first bag I ever made was for my SIL for Christmas. When I bought the material for hers, I also got some more fabrics from the Metro Green Goes Blue by Michael Miller. I thought they'd work together nicely as a bag. I finally got around to making the bag last week and finished putting on the handles tonight. I am hoping to use this as a church bag since I can't ever seem to fit everything I need in my little diaper bag. I used the un-paper bag tutorial from Purl Bee again, but I modified it slightly so I could have the chocolate vinyl bottom. (Thanks again Erin for the great big piece of of it!)

Next I think I want to try making a real diaper bag with this free pattern.

I love how it turned out! I might have to make me some. Would they work for grocery bags you think?

That is so cute it almost makes me want to try and make one, but I know it would turn out to be a disaster.

That's actually what they're intended for Erin.

Ness, the only difficult thing about this pattern is that I had to kind of "take in" the lining a little bit to fit right. Other than that it was really quite an easy and straight forward pattern.

Thanks for sharing. I've actually been wanting a bag to carry my things in for church and this looks perfect. I'll have to give it a try.
