Momma got a brand new bag!

I love this bag!  I made this bag for my mom for her birthday back in December. She wears black and white all the time, so I thought these fabrics would be perfect for her.  I wanted to keep it for myself... love the black dottie on it... oh, well... will just have to make myself one now.
It is even reversible!  I used Amy Butler's Swing Bag pattern.
For my mom-in-law's Christmas gift, I made her this bag using Amy Butler's Birdie Sling pattern.  It, too, turned out very cute!  I can't believe how big this bag is... great size for everything and very usable pockets on both sides of the interior lining.
These bags were very fun to make! Great patterns... great fabric... great bags... great Mom's!  Love you both!
