My friend gave me this fabric. She used to sew but cant anymore so lucky me. I got a few yards of different fabrics. I made this bag for her to thank her for thinking of me. I love how it came out. I reduced the Charlie pattern to 77%. I made an eyeglass case attached so she always knows where her eyeglasses are. Got the idea and instructions for the fabric flower from Karencilla. What a find? Thank you, thank you. I am making these fabric flowers to put on everything from hats to belts.

i love it! amazing how the bag can look so different depending on the different embellishments you add. i like your floral beach bag too with the extra pockets – very clever!!
