I like the Frenchy Bag, and love your bag and the colors you chose, but I didn't love making mine. I made one for a gift a few months ago and found it a bit tricky when I sewed in the top band. Maybe it was just me, or possibly the particular fabric I was using, but I didn't have a lot of fun making it. I cut out another one before I finished the first one, but have not made it yet.........maybe someday.

You do a good job. Have to say I'm with you this isn't my favorite pattern. Like the other patterns you have done. If you like doing the purses you should go out on your own.

I like your others best, I think, but I could learn to live with that one!!! I like the longer shoulder straps--both hands free for grabbing fabrics at a sale!!!

My daughter said I should buy an Eiffel Tower or fleur de lis charm and put on the handle. That would do something for it..........maybe.

Just goes to show that different folks have different tastes. Your daughter has a good idea! I'm with everyone else, the others are much prettier than this one but hey if you have buyers...

How about attaching a different color bow between the straps and white print fabric and let a little of the bow hang dow. I want to make a bag with the bow hanging down. Saw a purse in a store with this. Also, you could attach loops to hold bow down, and person can attach a different color.
