Agnes Smith's Go-Go Compact I'm totally into the bright yellow interior on this adorable little bag!
|
|
Pat Leask's Everyday Attache This color scheme has plenty of drama! It's beautifully photographed too!
|
|
Cheryl Klink's Quattro Cheryl made this bag for her sister who chose coated cotton for the exterior & even though it must've complicated the make, the result is gorgeous!
|
|
Julie Hoyt's Everyday Attache This bag of Julie's has everything I love... organization AND it's purple!
|
|
Donna Lamont's Go-Go Compact Donna said the silky brocade she chose for this exterior was difficult to work with but payed off BIG in the end!
|
|
Jeanne Harrington's HipBag Hybrid Jeanne made this cutie for her soon-to-be daughter-in-law to take on her honeymoon!
|
|
Judy Stuart's Go-Go Compact I love Judy's eclectic mix of fabrics and the yellow mesh pocket on the inside is such a really FUN surprise! |
|
Debbie Hataley's Go-Go Compact Debbie used the same fabric for her bag as we featured on the cover for this pattern and did an exceptional job doing so! Excellent fussy-cutting too!
|
|
Celia Anne Oliver's Bellagio Bag Celia is definitely proving herself to be the "Queen of the Bellagio"! |
|
And finally, here's Cheryl Garst's Guardian Bag. Cheryl showed some bravery combining these three fabrics but it payed off BIGTIME for her! |

is Your Phone getting bogged down with tooo many apps?
Tip: delete all the apps from your phone, or if that’s too scary, move them all to a screen away from your home screen. Bring them back only as you truly need them. After a few weeks, delete the rest and feel the weight lift.
