my new favourite bag

this was the product of the lovely little 'me sewing' i found time for this week, & i LOVE it
i'd bookmarked this pattern a few weeks ago, i even had some beautiful echino fabric waiting in the wings in which to make it up in, but when i pulled out my fabrics, i couldn't find anything i was happy to use for the lining, so in a very last minute change of plan, i cut into some fabric i'd been stashing for an age!
i'd been saving this fabric for something special, but thought why not use it on something i will use & get to see everyday! & i still have enough left over with which to make something else,
the pattern was easy to follow & the size of the bag means i will use it alot, it came together in little O's nap time (but she has very generously been sleeping for at least 2 hours in the afternoon this week)
i just love those little elephants

    I like that! It'd probably take me two months rather than two hours to make though.
