~A Tortoise~

Not the 4 legged ones that are a favorite of mine, but rather a new bag~

I was lucky enough to be able to test this wonderful bag and enjoyed it immensely!

It has a really unique top opening with two zippers.
I chose to make my handles out of Kraft-Tex and fabric. They will soften up with use.
I also added piping to the sides for a little more red. ;-)
 And a side slip pocket.

Inside there is a zipper pocket, and of course I needed a red lining! LOL

The pattern comes in three sizes and has directions for both cotton and vinyl straps.
Also, there is no hand sewing! Not one stitch!  That is a real plus for me. ;-)
Sara has some great tips spread throughout the pattern too.
Go check out all the different tester versions on Sara's blog~~


There are so many awesome bags~ even one with turtles!! :-)

Until next time~
Happy stitchin'!
