The Bag

Here's how the bag turned out.

This is the outside.

Here's the inside-it has six side pockets. It's reversible, so this could be the outside, but I thought pockets on the inside would give me a smaller chance of dumping stuff out of the pockets.

And here it is full of stuff. A loaded diaper bag! Now (maybe) I won't lose my keys or camera at the bottom of my bag.

As with the bonnet, if I make it again, I'll do a few things differently. I was surprised by how tall it is. The dimensions are listed on the pattern envelope, but I was still surprised. It looks more like a beach bag than a diaper bag. I have to admit, though, I'm not a big purse carrier, and some people carry purses this big. So I'm sure I'll get used to it. One thing's for sure, though-with a bag this big, I don't think anyone can walk off with it and go unnoticed!
