Does anyone try to make Vera Bradley bags?
#52
I don't care if I find fabric that looks like Vera Bradley. I've got so many cute purses. Tweety Bird is about worn out. I've got a farm fabric bag. I've just made one with ice cream cones and cookies on the bottom, turquoise linen on top and a dancing cow for the closing flap. I've got several linen bags that I got bits of fabric cheap.

Vera Bradly had a 75% off sale online this weekend on select colors/prints. I never pay full price for a VB bag. I have a lot of them. I give the big duffle and the weekender as gifts to females friends/family. They are great for short trips. I found one at a thrift store and took it apart for a pattern. No way would I save enough to bother making one when I can get it for 75% off several times a year.

And a clue I learned here---------keep the lining in a light color. Makes it easier to see what's inside.
Most of mine are from remnants and scraps-----------cost way less than$10 per.
