I'm undecided between Annie's Soft and Stable and Flex-Foam. I'm hoping mine can turn out as well as yours! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13543138840522410111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868583750761494400.post-68528905318821140762016-05-13T18:40:21.219-04:002016-05-13T18:40:21.219-04:00Yes, I made the small one!

I've been lo...Thank you so much for this post! I've been looking at the Maker's Bag pattern for a while, but had my concerns about the hand-sewn binding and also wanted to use a non-separating zipper and wondered how that would work. You've given me the help I needed. This looks like the small one - right? About how long did the hand-sewn binding take? It's beautiful. Good call on leaving off the outside patch pocket. I'm thinking of adding a flat pocket that goes across the full width of the bag with edges enclosed in the binding, using the exterior fabric. Your sheep are adorable; I can practically hear them bleating.enthoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17711461052404819605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2868583750761494400.post-50819769483851403712016-05-11T11:39:09.024-04:002016-05-11T11:39:09.024-04:00This bag is insanely cute.
