Here's the bag I was working on. I had to adjust the instructions a lot. I thought the pattern was a bit flawed and then they wanted you to sew it like this: I thought that was dumb so I took it out and now it looks like this:
Much better, eh? I added lots of pockets to the inside and a button to the pocket outside. You can't see the button there because I want to cover a button with the fabric from the lining and I haven't been able to go to Joann's yet and get the right sized button to cover. I like it.
Finally, here's my entry for this month's recipe war. Mine only has three ingredients, also.
First you need some ice cream, instant espresso, milk and a huge cup.
Put some ice cream in the cup.
Mmmmmm...ice cream.
Top it with a teaspoon (or to taste) of instant espresso. Add some milk and mix it up.
Walah, coffee milkshake. Enjoy.
**I'm just joking that's not really my entry for this month; that's my current craving.

Maybe I should get a secondary prize for writing the 501st post. I think that sounds like a great idea.
I think I should get a prize for giving you the pattern for that bag! it looks so fabulous! I like it much better with out the slit. What's up with that anyway?
The shake looks really yummy, but where do I find espresso powder? In the baking aisle?
Coffee aisle. Ha! Originally I wrote "coffe isle" and then I erased it because well, I spelled aisle wrong. But COFFEE ISLE!!! I need to live there. Where is it?
a little while after i posted that comment, i realized that you all would probably think i'm loco, wondering where the instant espresso is.
WOO HOO!!! I WIN!
I totally want the bag!
You rock Jo.
So do I, apparently.
;-) hee hee
Cool, I'll put the button on and get it in the mail. Did I spell button correctly? It looks funny.
I really like the purse your work is getting neater. Well done! It will go with jeans, and casual clothes. Very inovative pockets - you can never have too many pockets. Granny Lyn
I love the bag, it looks like it is very sturdy and would hold a lot of stuff. What are you going to use it for? You sew so nicely and it looks professional! I need to learn how to do that. Lucky You Tina!!!! YOu get the baggy prize!!!
