Plan A~ the tote I already had the pieces cut for didn't pan out. I remembered the reason I stopped~ I needed D-rings. :-o Since I forgot to get them, I went on to Plan B. :-)) The Grommet Bag by Indigo Junction. I have the outside together and am now working on the lining.

Which reminded me of one of my favorite pocket tips. :-) When you are making pockets that you need to then turn right side out, I always sew one stitch across the corner, instead of sewing to the corner point and pivoting. That one stitch will give you a perfectly square corner once trimmed and turned out. I learned that one back when I made a lot of clothes and the collar points were always a little stressful. Try it~ perfect points every time! :-) {I think you can get a better view if you click the photo)

Ok, back to work. I am trying to do lots of things at once today and the dryer just beeped. ;-) I'll be around to visit y'all a bit later~
Whoohoo! Keep on sewing!! :-)

Thanks for that pocket corner tip. Too late for today's bag but I will try to remember it.
The bag looks great so far, and I especially love the ric rac peeking out here and there :)
Loving that bag - VERY CUTE! And, thanks so much for the helpful tip! I'm going to give it a try! Can't wait to see more!
