    Default Simple Summer Crossbody Bag

    This is the summer of the watermelon around here. DD has fallen in love with this theme! I used the fabric left over from her tote bag to make this bag. Easy pattern and zipper installation is a breeze. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-s9X97sU38&t=1046s The strap was the hardest. I sandwiched woven strap between 2 strips of ribbon to give it body. (no pun intended)
    Had to edit to explain weird pics--I used new app on iphone. Touch an item in any pic to copy, then I pasted it into an email. Background looks like ripped up leather!

    Your bag looks simply delicious! Thank you for the link to the tutorial video. Great idea to use woven straps to sandwich between the ribbon! Watermelon says Summer to me. Guess I'll be going to the grocery store today because your bag has made me hungry for watermelon!

    The bag is adorable, perfect for summer! I think I'll dig out some fabric and make one for myself, thanks for the link.
