Purse Number Three

Spring is in the air, well at least it was a week or so ago, and I seem to be making purses these days.  I had finished this one a week or so ago but I put the zipper in backwards.  I carry my purse on my left shoulder so I like the zipper to open at the front when I have it on my shoulder.  I used the purse once and just couldn't make it work for me so I ripped the zipper out and finally put it back in tonight.  

I designed this purse myself using some of the bags that I had made in the past for inspiration, adding a little bit here and a little bit there.  It has lots of pockets and since I got a new iPhone I made one of the pockets at the front of the bag the right size to drop it into.

You can see there is still a little bit of snow on the ground.
It is starting to melt and when it does I won't miss it.
The fabric is from Henry Glass called Bee Happy.
I thought it was great for a new summer bag.

In Duluth

We took a short trip to Duluth MN for a bit of R & R.  YKW and I are just relaxing before going out for dinner.  I bought a few pieces of fabric but didn't break the bank this time.  Heading home tomorrow.
