New pattern: convertible straps diaper bag

...that would be a good anytime bag!  Especially for a trip to the zoo, or a weekend away, or a carry on bag, etc, etc, etc. 

I love this pattern!

What do you think?

(Simplicity pattern)

Large front kangaroo pocket 

Large back pocket, straps as a backpack 

Straps as a shoulder bag

Cross body backpack single strap 

Two large divided pockets inside. 

And just to show size...here is the deer bag with last week's Harriet handbag in front of it. 

Mama's going to love these!

Something ripped in my right knee last Thursday and after stressing it more last weekend with a craft show, I have been having to baby it this week, and keep it elevated as much as possible and in the knee brace. 

One of the windows that I worked on on Friday. 

Our craft show set up in Saturday. 

So I rearranged my week to be able to take it easy and have only allowed myself to sew for limited time periods. 

Monday I was able to finish piecing my Plaidish quilt top and am loving the way it turned out (I can't wait to get it back from my friend Kristi after she quilts it)!!!

I somehow ended up with an entire row more than I thought I would have, so it's a rectangle rather than a square...but that's ok with me. 

And then yesterday I was able to whip up a lining and straps for the triangle pieced faux vinyl tote bag and it turned out incredibly cute too!  ❤️❤️❤️

My kiddos didn't even get to see this one before I took it to the shop...where we now have a cute little display of five bags and a rack of keyfobs (that I completely forgot to take a picture of).
