The "No Name" Bag

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Ok, All. I need your help. I came up with this bag myself after being disgusted with how the actual pattern came out. It originally was a Florida Bag but it didn't carry well at all, I was very disappointed but couldn't let this great fabric go to waste. So I ripped it apart and recreated it. Now it has no name. So I have come up with a few names for this bag and would like you all to vote on which name you like best for this bag. Vote by commenting to this post and tell me what your choice is. Thanks so much. I'll tally up the votes in a few days.

Name choices:

The City Bag

The Miah Bag (that's my middle daughter's name)

The Casey Bag

The Hexa Bag

How cute is this bag! I had a few interested in seeing a brown and pink bag and after months of searching for fabric (go figure, nobody had brown and pink, seriously) I found some yesterday and fell in love! What do you think of the slanted flap? Comment and let me know. I was trying something new to add a little "style" and want to know what you all think. Comment away!

This bag and the brown and pink bag above will be available at the Autumn Stroll. What do you think of this size? It' s approximately 10 in. long and 6 in. high. Please comment and let me know. Oh and sorry about the wrinkly white background, I don't have patience for ironing.

Ran out of thread!!

I seriously hate it when I run out of thread. I was working on a bag, a semi-new style, I'll call it the Mini-Folio and I only had a few more things to do until it was finished and then ran out of white thread! That really chaps my cheeks! Anyway, so I am off to Birkholders, an awesome fabric store in the middle of nowhere, with my kids and my Grandma (it ought to be interesting). I'd like to stock up on some fall prints, too, while I'm there. I can't believe that fall will be here before we know it. I'm ready to break out my jeans and smell that crisp Autumn air. It's my favorite season you know. Ok, enough about fall. Keep watching my blog for the finished Mini-Folio and also I finished a totally new style called the Florida Bag. Not too sure about though, I need opinions on that one so stay tuned for that one, too.

Sold

The All Squares small tote has been spoken for. The lovely Aleisha has decided that it's the bag for her. Hope you enjoy it, Aleisha! And yes, Korin, I do have more of that paisley fabric.
