A new hand bag and shopping bag!!!

Mum decided a few weeks ago that she wanted a new handbag made up. So off we went to Noarlunga Spotlight.. And she found a really nice brown thick material..

So I had a fun time making her a new bag.. This is what I came up with. You can't see it on the bag, but the top flap actually comes off. The back has a strip of velcro, so that depending on Mum's mood, she can interchange the top flap! It's pretty cool!!!


Then to go inside I made this shopping bag. And as you can see it folds up quite neatly to fit inside the bag without taking up too much room. It's based on the same measurements as the Green shopping bags that you get from Coles/Woolies. As here in South Australia all shops are now plastic bag free.
