Cover me. I'm going in!

After about 18 months of procrastination and general task avoidance I have decided to finally put my Amy Butler Weekender bag together. I have finished cutting everything out (a Herculean effort in itself) and have even made the handles and some of the piping.

I have read on many blogs that the bag is a bit of a demon but I would really like to have it finished to take to hospital with me next month. To be perfectly honest I am less nervous about having a caesarean than I am about making the bag!

My plan is to tackle it slowly, one step a day, so that in a week I will hopefully transform these fabrics.....




Into this bag.....without any swearing.



I think I could be kidding myself.

  2. Good luck with that Shon! I started a nappy bag before the impending arrival of Molly (one of those pumpkin/weekender bags) as a nappy bag and I finished it when she was about 4!!!
