A Birthday bag. 24 buttons!
#14
Cute, cute, cute! The buttons just make it pop. I've done a binding on one set of outside seams. Not easy, but it does help a bag keep its shape and stand up. My favorite commercial-made tote bag has outside seams, and stands up and stays open without being too heavy. Good job!!

That is adorable! Speaking of buttons, I'm going to tell you this just for a chuckle...I've been making quilts for 10+ years and have done very little garment/other sewing. Yesterday I remade a large velvet pillow cover and had to replace the buttons, 5 of them, on the back. I learned that my sewing machine can sew on buttons! I whipped out the manual and it was very easy to follow the instructions. I had the 5 4-hole buttons on in about 10 minutes. Who knew! LOL. I bet most sewing machines that can do buttonholes can do buttons. Who says you can't teach an old dog new tricks! hahaha
