  1. Your YouTube video says to come here for written instructions. I can not find them. Do you at least have a list of the panels of fabric and their sizes needed? Thanks.

  2. Apologies, I don't know what happened to the instructions! The measurements are all at the start of the video, each side panel is 18" across x 13" deep, the is in two pieces, 18" x11.5" and 18" x 2.5", the zip is 19", four pieces to hold the top zip measuring 14" x 2.5". The patch pocket on the front is 9" x 8.5" with an 8" zip. Hope that helps...

  3. I made this last summer and have carried it as my purse all year. I am going to make a new version but this time I am going to put some Bosal into the handles to keep them a bit more cushy. I just found this blog so I am having such fun catching up.

  4. Love this bag pattern! Unfortunately, I'm part way through making the bag, but the video doesn't show how to attach the large zipper section to the lining. Are there instructions anywhere? HELP!! Many thanks :)
