And I had soooo much fun making them!!! They're all different and all just a bit weird. But that makes them fun, right :) These "Dana Bags" are on their way to the 4 recipients. I hope you like them! But, then, I made no guarantees that you would like what I made...
The bags have double button-loop closures. I love buttons! I'm always on the lookout for interesting buttons. If you have any you don't want, send them my way...
All bags are lined with matching fabric. And none of the thread matches. I do that on purpose, don't worry. In college I took a sewing class from this very old-fashioned woman. One of our projects was a skirt, which I wasn't excited about because it had to have darts in it. I made a black skirt with silver thread. She gave me a D on it for using un-matching thread! Seriously?!? I obviously knew it didn't match. I obviously used contrasting thread to make the skirt more interesting because it was a stupid project in the first place. So now, because of that incident, I make sure to have contrasting thread in everything I make. Is that vindictive? Stubborn? Artistic? I don't know. I'll just call it a QuickSnail trademark ;)
The Dana will retail for $15. Send me an email if you want one: nicolinisnail@gmail.com. You can even pick the color :)

I really don't think bad grades should be given in classes that have artistic domain. The bags are so cute!
I loved my bag and have been meaning to thank you!! My scriptures fit perfectly and everyone at church loved it! Thanks so much!
I didn't even think to put scriptures in them! I'm glad you like it & that it works for you :)
I have a similar school sewing class bad memory. Our teacher also made us make a skirt with darts. She insisted on us "fitting it" and I mean fitted. My dumb skirt was so tight I couldn't walk or breath in it. I got an A I think but it was a waste of fabric. Should have cut it up and made it into a cute purse like these!
