Shelbie's bag - it's for knitting and squared off at the bottom so it can sit on the floor and hold a box she keeps with some notions in it. I also got her a knitting needle case from Etsy. This bag is made from Japanese canvas with leather handles I bought that just crimped on.
Jamie's bag - may never be used. It has a combination of vintage, new and Japanese fabric. I got the pattern from one of my Japanese craft books but I had to use a lot of imagination since I don't speak Japanese.
Chelsey wanted a yellow bag again from vintage fabric (the cat is a linen dish cloth), new fabric and Japanese. I like the rick rack at the top.
This is Tracey's bag and its full of her Christmas presents. After making Jamie's bag I changed the pattern completely in size and scale. Also, new, vintage and Japanese novelty fabrics were used.
