Lessons learned:
creating sections (albeit uneven :)
working with thicker material and heavier needle
installing an adjustable strap
open with the flap closed...
open with the flap open...
open & filled with my sewing supplies...
closed (rolled) up...
closer detail of the ribbon closure...
It's cute, right?
I made a few modifications to this project:
1) I couldn't get my hands on oilcloth specifically (which is what the project called for though they said we could use a few other materials) without ordering some and I wasn't patient enough to wait for it so my (wonderful) husband picked up some vinyl for me at Hancock Fabrics. It worked just fine.
2) I couldn't find O-rings very easily so I chose some (too large) D-rings that worked.
3) I didn't have any matching ribbon that was 1" thick but I had this really cute ribbon "that matched and everything" so I decided to use 2 strands of it. THAT was a challenge.
As was sewing the straight lines to form the sections inside.

Good job, Honey Girl! You're moving right along, and learning some really nice techniques. This project looks just like something YOU would create. Must be the colors/pattern. :D
