    Tell your friend the following hint to get a bottle of water for her BEAUTIFUL tote LEGALLY on the airplane. Take an EMPTY bottle through security. Fill it at a drinking fountain. Take it on the plane. DH came up with this one, and it WORKS.

The two end pockets (you see the hanging ribbon?)...is perfect to carry bottles of water. I made it for a lifetime friend that's taking a trip of a lifetime to Norway in a few weeks. It'll be perfect for hauling "stuff" onto the plane! I have to admit - this has been the most challenging thing I've sewn in a long time....and I can't wait to do another one!


    I just purchased this pattern, it came in the mail today, how hard was it? I make alot of Lazy Girl Patterns and the Bow Tuck Pattern. Is this one much more challenging than those?

    I LOVE this pattern. It isnt really hard, but you need to follow the directions, step by step, making sure you have done exactly what was described.

    It turns out beautifully..

    Here is a pic of the one I made..
