The Expanding Bag






Well today I used my brain and made a bag without using a pattern. Adi if your reading this and its not your birthday day do not continue!



Anyway one of the girls at works birthday is tomorrow and I decided to make her a new work bag. She usually brings her stuff to work in one of those green Coles or Woolworths shopping bags. So using the dimensions of one of these I have made her a bag using Purple which is her favourite colour. BUT made a little twist. I put tabs on the side of it so that when the bag is not full it can be made smaller but when she needs to pile lots of stuff into it she can make it bigger. Check it out..............





The closed not so full look.
The OMG I am going to burst at the seems look.

Well done KA. I love the colour and I think the buttons are a terrific idea. Those bags are so practical it is nice to have a pretty one :)
