Sound Check Bag

Hello! Here is my latest accomplishment from Big City Bags - The Sound Check Bag.


I think it turned out really cute. I especially like the pleats. They were really fun to make. This is Amy Butler, Gypsy Caravan, fabric I have had in my stash (dresser drawer) for a couple of years. I used 4 of the stripes from the inside fabric for the accents.  This is the inside.
I kind of like how the stripes went together in the inside. The only thing I didn't really like about how the way my bag turned out is the rectangle hardware. I wish I would have had a smaller size. Because they kind of shift because the straps are more narrow. Fitting the corners of both the bag and the lining can be a little tricky. You just have to sew very slow and keep adjusting the bag so that you don't get any other part of the bag caught while sewing.  I might make another one down the road. I have been accumulating so much fabric, I'm sure I can  pull some out for another one.
