Since Kathleen Laurel Sage came to talk to us, I have been desperate to get started making one of her bags and this is the result. It was interesting to work with plastic instead of fabric, it doesn't slide on the sewing machine very well which makes the free machining a bit tricky until you get used to it. If anyone else plans to do this bag that is in Stitches magazine you need to be aware that the rolls of plastic we bought from Kathleen are not quite sufficient for an exact copy of the bag. Mine is just a bit smaller, I haven't put the flap over and there are fewer flowers. I am still quite pleased with the result though. I thought I might get some more plastic and make my great niece one for Christmas with flowers and butterflies on.
