Margo Hometown Bag


i LOVE this bag pattern!!!  Margo by Lazy Girl Designs.  i made THIS bag for last months FNSI and gave it away as my gift. 

I also made THIS bag a few months ago, and loved the fabrics but its big.  its not really a daily use bag.  you know, that going-to-work-and-need-all-my-junk-with-me Bag.

the Margo pattern was perfect for these fabrics.  its the Sweetwater line HOMETOWN and the outside is canvas and corduroy.  it makes it really heavy duty.  im considering using it as a purse for awhile. 


the inside is lined with just a simple linen from joanns.  a fav of mine to use as a lining.


corduroy back and handles.  ( I <3 CORD!!)


LOVE those front pockets in this pattern.  its a great place to slip in keys.  if you ever get to meet me.....and go anywhere with me....im that girl who can never find her keys in her purse!  i hate that about myself.  my son will also tell you im the same girl who can never find her sunglasses either!!! 

happy sewing!!!

Great bag, Bobbi! I hope I do get to go somewhere with you some day. That would be fun! I promise that I won't mind if you lose your keys. :)

I love this bag . Your fabric choices are fab. I am such a corduroy girl. By the way, I am right there with you on not being able to find keys or sunlasses in my purse-or my cell phone! I am anxious to sign up for your next Friday night sew in.
