if you think the purse is too big, try reducing the pattern to about 90% or 95% on a copier. I’m petite and the 90% is perfect for me.

I made mine after looking at the pattern for over a year – I love it and have 2 more planned. Next one I make is for a friend of mine, then onto another for myself. It is big, but it is a totebag afterall! Everyone who has seen it loves it.

This is the FIRST sewing project I’ve ever attempted and it came out fantastic. I started it without a sewing machine and soon realized that I’d never finish it without one (thats how inexperienced I am)! Once I had the machine it was finished in a matter of hours. It’s huge and will make an excellent diaper bag! If I can do it, anyone can.

I have the pattern just haven’t made it yet. You want to see HUGE try the new Field Bag .. I’ve made two of her Frenchy Bags and they are terrific .. people said they are huge but I didn’t find them that big .. you can find shops that carry her patterns on her site, or just google, Etsy people have them, Ebay.

Dorothy – You have to purchase the pattern – you can probably find a copy at your local sewing store if they sell Amy Butler fabrics, or you can buy it online.

Hi, just wondered if you have tried reducing the pattern size and if so, how it turned out?
By the way, I LOVE your fabric choice for the sling!

So glad I stumbled across your entry about the bag since I put the pattern aside after reading negative reviews. (All said the directions were hard to follow and sewing was difficult). Now I am ready to try the bag using less expensive decorator fabrics from WallyWorld- but still pretty fabrics!
PS: Bought my pattern on ebay for $9 with free ship.

Would you make this bag for someone else? I’m dying for one but have NO patience to make it. I would be VERY interested! Price it!

Also, where do you buy your fabrics? Do you know of a good online site?
