I haven’t finished this bag yet, but I’m not very happy with it at this stage.  It hasn’t been lined yet, but it’s just not right.  The zip insertion instructions were either quite weird or I didn’t read them correctly, so I’m disappointed with how it has gone in, and the whole thing seems to sag.  Maybe it needed interfacing throughout (I only interfaced the pieces specified in the instructions), although this may improve once the lining goes in.  I’m glad I didn’t spend much on the fabric (and no, the zip doesn’t match – I just used one I had in the stash,since this bag was really a bit of a trial effort).

Hubby doesn’t think it looks good either – and he’s usually quite enthusiastic about my projects! 

I’ll be back on the blog after the Easter break.  Maybe I’ll have some more things completed by then (although I somehow doubt it)!  Have a great holiday weekend!
