Bags are more difficult that I thought. You have to be very precise with measurements, especially when adding pockets inside, but this tutorial was a good starting point. I used light batting in between layers and sprayed Scotch Guard over the hole thing, but next time I will use that plus interfacing
on all sides. And I'll make the straps thicker, too. Any thoughts on what I could use to make the bottom of the bag even more rigid?
Still loving my diaper & wipes clutch pattern. So convenient, slim, and won't crush the diapers to the bottom of the holder like the typical envelope style. I sure do need to make some for the Etsy store soon. In the meantime, just let me know if you want one. (The inside of this is teal/turquoise like the bag.)
Finally, I was able to practice applique on the Minky Cuddle Rose material. You DEFINITELY need that water soluble stabilizer
on top as well as a layer of stabilizer
on bottom. I still feel like the pile of Minky stuff seemed to "eat" the embroidery, but it still turned out pretty cool.

Congrats Kathy & Justin!
