Bag Blog - First Bag I Ever Made

Back in 2013 I sewed my first bag, in a class.  At the time I had only sewn very simple things, and I was ready to get serious about sewing. My kids were finally old enough that I could devote some time to a space-devouring project. I wanted to make something practical, and something that would push the boundaries of my skills. I wanted to get more comfortable with my sewing machine. I didn't have a clear idea of what to make, but I was ready for inspiration.
