I was in need of a new bag /purse so I was happy to be making this one. I used Vintage Picnic by Bonnie & Camille and Essex Linen for my bag. I intended to use the navy, red and aqua prints with the polka dot Mochi linen by Moda but... I started pairing up the corally pinks and greens from the line and went in that direction. I'm a sucker for pink and green! There's a little splash of aqua too. I used a cute button I made years ago from a little scrap of the much loved blue eyelet/seed from Flea Market Fancy. I stipple quilted the body and used a wide zig zag stitch for the bottom quilting. I love how it turned out. My oldest girl loved it too so I decided to give it to her. I'm making a bag for myself now with the navy, reds and aquas. I'll share it with you when I finish.
The instructions in the pattern were great. It didn't take too long to make either. A step-by-step video on making the bag with Kimberly and Joanna can be found HERE.
The pattern can be found HERE.
I used 2 of these swivel D-rings for my bag.
I can't wait to see some other versions of Kimberly's Sac. The fabric choices are so fun for this cute bag.
Happy Sewing!
