Baggalista.......Finally Done

It seems like this bag took me forever! I've been working on this since the beginning of May. This is the back of the bag with a flap that lifts up. There is a pocket on each side with a zipper for my phone.


This is the front of the bag. I use paper-pieced blocks from Quiltmaker's 100 Blocks  


For the lining, I used fabric called "Scented". It actually does smell like lavender, not real strong. The only time I smelled it real strong was when I was ironing it. I thought it would be nice for a lining of a bag to keep it nice and fresh. This is a nice bag and I will enjoy carrying it, especially since it took me a Coon's age to complete!


I am posting my finished June project to June OMG at Elm Streets Quilt .
This was My original post for my June goal (plus My May goal!). Yeah! Now I can move on to something else.

I, also, completed a bag for Sadie's Dream for a Cure I thought it turned out kind of cute. I mailed this a couple of weeks ago to them.



If you want to complete a bag for this great cause, you can participate by going to their website above. Little kids going through trials need a little bit of kindness in their life.

Let's Try This Again...

I did not complete my OMG for May so I am choosing it again for June. It seems that I did not have a whole lot of time to sew in May. We started going camping so that leaves out a few weekends of sewing through the Spring and Summer.

I have approximately 1/3 of this Baggalista Bag bag completed so hopefully, I will have it done by the end of June.
