I saw a jacket, homemade. And that's a compliment to its creator. Very well constructed. Beautiful workmanship. With some really cool flowers on it. I originally planned to remove the flowers and use them on something else, but they were constructed on the garment itself. Not constructed and added to it. So, I used the front of the jacket to make my bag. I had to do a little requilting on it as it was quilted to the batting with no backing. I didn't want to run it through my machine that way, fearing the batting would catch in the feed dogs, so I added a backing and requilted it. It took a little bit of time, but I figure it prevented a lot of aggravation, so all's well.I lined it with a floral print with four roomy pockets. Gotta have those pockets. I'm really happy with how it turned out.
