You can do the same with bags. Find an easy tote pattern online. Buy some cheap muslin and cut out all the pieces, just don't buy interfacing. Remember this is just a practice piece. Follow the directions and start sewing.<br />Hope this will help. My first bag was ok but not as I had hoped it would be but perseverance and now I actually design my own patterns :-)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04634366044408740241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6833334029673467519.post-49398117707286065322013-07-22T17:45:09.975-07:002013-07-22T17:45:09.975-07:00Just do it!!!Just do it!!!Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12046835162546621897noreply@blogger.com
