A couple new bags!

Oh, Noodlehead.   I love you.

I find myself making Anna’s bags over and over.   They are just SO enjoyable to sew.

I have two new ones to share today!

These were a custom request from my friend Kim, I hope she enjoys them!

Did you finish anything fun this weekend?

xo, Lindsey

Noodlehead :: Go Anywhere Bag

 

First off, I love this bag.  LOVE!

I was very excited when Anna asked me if I would like to test her new bag pattern.    I’ve made a few of her tutorials and the 241 tote and I knew I would love anything new she was creating.   She  definitely didn’t disappoint!

It’s a decent size bag, but well organized.   I can’t stand big bags that are just empty shells where all of your stuff is impossible to find.   There’s 3 divided pockets on the front and one big pocket on the back.    I like that the pockets are easily accessible so I could drop my keys in and retrieve them quickly.

It holds a TON of stuff.   I took it today on a trip out of town and I managed to carry all of this:

  • camera
  • wallet
  • makeup bag
  • 2 snack bags of pretzels
  • epi pens
  • cellphone
  • pen + day planner
  • my glasses in their case
  • sunglasses
  • a leapster in it’s case
  • and a partridge in a pear tree   (i kid…)

I know I won’t be carrying this much everyday, but it makes me happy to know I could carry that much if I wanted.   Options are good, ha!

The interior has a slip pocket that’s perfect for  my phone and a pen.   Lots of ways to customize too.   I chose to use resin snaps on the large outside pocket and the inside slip pocket and I added binding to the outside pockets for an extra pop of color.

Well written pattern and great end result, A++ in my book!

241 Tote.


I saw this tote over at Alamode Fabrics.   I had a sweet little stack of fabric I bought to make a bag and  just hadn’t found a pattern.   This was it!  I absolutely love everything about this bag.

I added in a little hand embroidery.

And a longer strap with the selvages sewn on.   I love how funky and fun it turned out!  Great pattern if you’re in the market for a new bag.
