For my lovely sister’s birthday I decided to make her a bag. I’d bought some fabulous Ghanaian fabric at the Knitting and Stitching Show and got a bit keen and decided to make Lisa Lam’s Great Getaway Bag from her book ‘The Bag Making Bible’.Find it here on her site along with lots of lovely bits to buy and great advice. I’ve been wanting to make this bag for ages and it went pretty well, but it’s a lot of work. The enthusiastic reception has made it worth it.
The Great Getaway Bag

There’s our lovely dog wondering if she’ll ever get a walk. Poor thing, she had to wait until I’d been to the post office.

More pockets, because they’re always useful.
