My first UFO finish for the year.

Oh this bag has haunted me I am sure.  I did this in a class that was to focus on using the different stabilizers – where to use what.  Well, the directions were so complex and the bag took so much concentration that I really cannot remember anything about using the stabilisers.  I didnt get the bag finished in class.  Every time I thought about finishing it I would remember the way the directions were written and decide against it – that is until a few days ago when I decided I had better just get it out of the way.  Fortunately I was able to work out what to do, not so much from the directions but more trial and error.  I dont know if it is the way it should be, but it did work.

It has a zippered pocket on the front under the flap, and one on the back.  I made it in a light denim colour, with the pink lining and trim. There were lots of pieces to cut out to make this, and one thing I can say is that everything fitted well, once I worked out where to put them.  That part of the pattern was just fine, it was just the way the directions were written up that was so complicated.
