Sewing - a book lined bag featuring LONDON fabric with a outer zippered pocket


 It has been wonderful to sew with this LONDON fabric.  I am very near the end of the piece I got from the Gramma Link Africa Fabric Sale  a while back.  I made this bag 15" by 15" or so and used the LONDON fabric for the front and black fabric for the back.  I added a zippered pocket to the back (10.5" x 11.5'').  I added fabric ends to the zipper and then added the top from the LONDON fabric and the bottom from the same black fabric I used for the back.  I added a strip of red fabric (poly cotton) which I stitched in a few places which allows a person to add a carbiner and attach items to the outside of the bag - keys, decorations, etc.  I lined the bag with the same red poly cotton fabric.  A good size for a walk about bag - add a wallet and there is enough room for books from the library or a few groceries for your next meal.  Therese
