First sewing project

O.K having decided to throw myself headfirst into this domestic crafty thing I have challenged myself to handmake everyones birthday presents this year. I hope I am not crazy.

I decided to make her a bag to use on our upcoming holiday using this tutorial http://tinyhappy.typepad.com/tiny_happy/2006/06/shoulder_bag_tu.html

Whoops, should have edited the photo first.
