It nearly kicked my ass, but I managed to come out on top. It’s Amy Butler’s Weekender Bag. I adore it. It was not very easy to make, well the basic construction is simple but it’s so thick once you’re sewing it together that the joy is sucked out of the room and new curse words are invented.

I’ve been in such a terrible funk since Chico passed away, I wanted to challenge myself to try and learn something new and make something that might be hard for me to do. It was a good distraction and I love it.
