Six-Pocket Ladybug Bag

While browsing Craft, Crafty, Craftier, a fantastic craft resource site, I found a pattern for a six-pocket bag. I like sewing, I like bags, and I like pockets, so I set about making a six-pocket bag of my own.

It turned out very well, especially since I haven’t sewed anything from a pattern in a long, long time. I love the three fabrics I picked out and how they all match together, as well as the six pockets on the outside, three on each side. I even added a little pocket on the inside of the bag (I told you I liked pockets). The batting I used to reinforce the sturdiness of the bag works very nicely, and it’s plenty roomy inside to stash my keys, phone, wallet, and all the other stuff I need to cart around from day to day.

I already have my next six-pocket bag in the works. I have my fabrics picked out (even if it did nearly kill me in the process to come up with three compatible fabrics that I liked), all I need is to sit down and start making it. I’m going to make my next one a little bigger than this ladybug one though, so I can use it during the school year to carry around my laptop, textbook, and notebooks!
