Diaper bag magic

My beautiful sister Erin had a baby boy in March so I wanted to try my hand at making a diaper bag (made the bag in march...she has it already). This was a FIRST. In the past I've made quilts, hemmed shirts, made skirts, shirts, and other random things, but they were all flat. I had never made anything that was supposed to have shape. So to try my first bag...I figured my sweet sister wouldn't mind the imperfections that were sure to come, and they did. I got this free diaper bag pattern and picked out fabric. Her little boy's room is cowboy themed; so browns, rust, and blues, were the colors of choice. I struggled little through this process because: WARNING the steps are not all explained EXACTLY. There are a couple things missing from this tutorial. So if you decide to do it, take it slow. I wish I could remember now what I messed up and had to do over so I could tell you...but I can't. Maybe if I make another some day those fixed mistakes will come to the surface again. But for now...this is what I did! YAY!
