Amy Butler Cosmo Bag

Last year my students gave me an Amazon gift card for Christmas.  Whenever I get gift cards, I like to buy things that I want, but wouldn't buy for myself.  One thing I got was Amy Butler's Style Stitches. 

I love her fabric and her designs. My first project was the cover project, the Cosmo Bag.

I'm really into yellow and gray right now, so I chose some Amy Butler yellow and gray fabric. 

I love it.  It has 5 pockets on the inside and 2 on the outside.  Sometimes, I think it has too many pockets because I can't remember which pocket I put my keys in.

It wasn't that difficult to make, but definitely not a beginner project.  I think that it took me just as long to cut out all of the pieces as it did to sew the bag.  I can't wait to make another bag from the book.
