I recall reading about Erin's new zipper installation challenge and it looks like you had the patience to follow it through. Terrific job on the bag (as always). Oh, and the best thing about having done a lot of bags is that you can always customize linings without any great difficulty.Rochelle @ eSheep Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00873971744083672144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573124194374158409.post-18930678676812268352014-08-31T09:39:58.511-04:002014-08-31T09:39:58.511-04:00That must happen to me too, Daryl.

Those threads on my projects only show up in the photos! I think they secretly wait until I am about the click the camera button and jump on my bag, quilt, or whatever I am photographing, lol!!!Daryl @ Patchouli Moon Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06187456682218408410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573124194374158409.post-71876974450364407052014-08-31T08:51:18.519-04:002014-08-31T08:51:18.519-04:00Thanks, Maria.

As you know I've used red in a recent bag so I love this one. I've only tried Erin's free patterns but love her designs. Funny how thread only seems visible on the photos. This happens to me a lot. Yesterday I took my laptop to get a program installed and the guy found a tiny bit of thread stuck in the keys LOLLLL.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02508301512686376866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573124194374158409.post-81741513213338441832014-08-30T18:40:45.310-04:002014-08-30T18:40:45.310-04:00I have a lint roller that I use on my rug.

I love her patterns. They are very well written and the designs are very practical. The fabric you used is beautiful, great for bags. I did not used Soft and Stable but Thermolam. The other pattern you got (The drawstring backpack) is great too. I've used it and love the results. The zipper compartment on front is so big. About the threads I know the feeling! Sometimes is not after you get the photos to the computer that you see all these things. I got myself a Scoth Brite Lint Roller and I use it (specially on black fabric) before taking pictures. The pictures are for listing on etsy and I don't want lint or threads there.Norma's Bag Boutiquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05730670443575997840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573124194374158409.post-84762488641999756712014-08-30T15:32:12.497-04:002014-08-30T15:32:12.497-04:00You'll love it.

I plan to add a zippered pocket inside, too, and I like the idea of adding some piping. Thanks for reviewing this!Grandma Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09260178906088230163noreply@blogger.com
