buttercup bag


Wow. I can't believe I waited this long to make a Buttercup Bag and it only took me 3 hours! Silly girl. I put it off for so long, thinking it would be a tough project, but it was easy as pie...er...smooth as butter. :) Rae's pattern is quite easy to follow, even for a lazy novice like me.

It is quite small--about 10"x6"--but Rae gives instructions for making it bigger. I can fit my checkbook-size wallet, keys, and phone...maybe a diaper and a tiny box of raisins. This toddler mama will definitely be making a bigger one, but I need to make a trip to the fabric store first.



Don't you just love that dandelion fabric? I'm going to make some owlies with dandelion wings, as well. The bag has a sweet little pocket that is the perfect size for my phone, plus a magnetic closure to keep it neat. I'm in love with my sweet little bag.
