Thanks! I don't think I could sell them. I haven't mastered a technique yet and I need to spend more time ALONE in the craft store so I can pay attention to what is sold rather than rushing through. But it was fun to make!

If I make more and they look better, I'll be sure to post more pix.

Thanks. There is a girl selling almost identical ones one etsy, which is where I got the idea from. Aside from etsy, I have no where to even sell them. She calls them "baptism bags". I could call them "mitzvah totes!" ;)

Pattern for what? The letter is a paisley kind of pattern, but I did the H on my own. I drew it on paper and then cut it out as a template for the fabric. I wasn't sure if the paisley went with the zebra, but I figured bc the colors went it was ok. If I do it again, I would like to see what they sell in the iron on department or real template area.

Thanks! That was my favorite part. A little mature for a kids bag, but I thought it was fun! In the pix, the lining is coming away from the bag but I fixed that. I didn't take another pix though.

The pattern for the bag. Did you sew the bag?

oh, no. the bag came from A.C.Moore. :) I did the lining and decorating. I'm not THAT good.. and I don't own a sewing machine. But the bag was like $2.00 or something. I hand sewed the lining, which took the most time bc I had to pin it just so. I think it might be a cute idea for a party gift. Maybe stick a book inside or something age appropriate and it's kinda cute!

lol. AC Moore is about 2 minutes from my house. It's dangerous, very dangerous. Of course, I'm also sandwiched between 2 Michael's (10 minutes in either direction). AC Moore... mine is in Smithtown.
