The Duchess Bag

Just recently I took part in a Doll swap over on Vicki's Craft Forum. My partner was Duchess, aka Glenys, who told me she wasn't fussed what she received...as we could make whatever, as long as it had a doll on it, or was a doll.....as she mentioned a bag, I remembered seeing some Raggedy fabric in my friend Khristina's stash...and before she moved back to Queensland, I bought it off her. As you can see, even though the fabric was quite big, I managed to get it to work with the pattern.

I drew up the pattern pieces myself and in honour of the person the first bag was made for using them, I've named it The Duchess Bag....and if you'd like a copy of the pattern pieces, please email me and I'll send you the pdf (3 pages). I'll try and get a full tutorial done soon though.

The bag arrived at Duchesses house today, so I no longer have to sneak around and show people! She'd been having one of 'those' days, so it cheered her up when she got the parcel in the post.
