… the Bag Edition:
I have been busy sewing, but since I’ve been introduced to Swoon Bags, it’s been hard to focus on anything else! Â I started with the Ethyl (a free pattern) that I showed you a while back:
Then I purchased Coraline pattern, which makes a clutch or an easy wristlet. Â First I made an aqua wristlet:
Then I came across some Dr. Who fabric that I knew would be perfect for my niece Kyla:
There is a zipper across the top, but it is recessed.  On  a couple of bags, I added credit card slots.  On the most recent ones, I made a separate little credit card holder
I saw this western fabric and I knew it would be perfect for grand-niece Mattea, who is a rodeo kind of gal:
Next I cut out three more to stitch up as gifts. Â I finished the retro looking pink one with cherries:
I really like this brown one made of batiks. Â I just might keep this one:
And I have a black-and-white wristlet I’m still working on. Â I am ready to move on to other bag patterns that Swoon offers, but I need to get a couple of quilts done before I can go Swoon-ing again.

I was not able to locate the Ethyl pattern. Would love to make it — such a great size to showcase large print fabrics!
Super cute wristlets! I was just thinking I need something like that, so I guess I need to get busy…
My current bag is her Caitlyn, but the pattern isn’t for sale on the website. Your bags are great! I’ll have to try Ethyl.
