I am thankful that although F loves everything adorable (like mamma), she is not into brand name items or clothing. She's been practical and sensible so far. When she started dancing at her current school a few years back, I gave her this striped zippered bag (pictures below) as her ballet bag. (and, no, I did not make it.) Recently, I looked into the bag and found that the bag was so abused well-loved, the lining was ripping, and the zipper came apart. There was no way to save it. It's time...
TO SEW!! Faith had a hard time letting the bag go. But I was very excited to start this project. Hehehe. Faith requested to have a bag that looks like the Miss W Bag, with the same width of the old ballet bag, a bit deeper, same length for handles, no zipper for closure but instead, a welted zipper pocket.
So, I measured the old bag and started cutting and sewing. I added a button and a loop for closure, and a key holder (ribbon and O-ring) at one end. Within 3 nights, the bag was done. My next project for her is to make a draw string dance shoe bag with the floral print. Hope this one get to last longer than the last.
