I am always up for trying something new...

ONCE! HaHa, no I am kidding!  I was visiting a friend the other day who is very talented with a sewing machine and it got me on an "I want to sew although I have no talent in that department whatsoever" mode.  She makes fabulous bags/diaper bags... no seriously... check it out!
Anyway, I digress... So today I went to the fabric store and picked up some fabric to make a hobo bag.  I found a free pattern and istructions online a few months ago and have wanted to attempt it but have never been brave enough to try.  Well I finally got brave and here are the results!

I absolutely love it! Although I could name about 10 things I did wrong!  I got very creative at one point because I didn't want to undo an entire seam! haha  If you want to make your own hobo bag you can go to www.jcarolinecreative.com  in the "how to's" section!

I love Hobo bags. I need a new one but I don't like the fabric on them. What a great Idea. It looks fab.
