The April project for the Big City Bags Sew Along (Big City Bags is a book by Sara Lawson at
Sew Sweetness) over at
Sewing With Squeak was the Wonderland Bag. I think this pattern was a lot easier than last month's clutch. I substituted some of the materials. I used Annies Soft and Stable instead of the recommended Thermolam Plus Fusible Fleece and I used Pellon Peltex 70 instead of the Pellon 520 Deco-Fuse. In addition, I used 23" handles and not the 28" handles called for in the book.
The only thing I don't like about this bag is the opening. I feel it is too small.
I have some coordinating fabric that I will use for next month's project so there will be a set.

Love the owl fabric ;). And I substituted the Soft and Stable as well. Can't wait to see your finished set!!
Love the lining fabric and the owls too! Your bag turned out vey nicely.
Those owls are too cute. I agree with you about the opening, it's a little awkward. Your piping looks great though!
Love your bag. I made my bag longer, I also thought it was a bit small.
Pretty bag.. love the print.
So nice. Really love the owls and the contrasting fabric as well. Your handles look great!
