This will be the last bag for awhile. I made all the adjustments and I'm 90% happy with it, I'd change just one thing. This is the front of the sewing case.
The back.
I went a bit over the top but I like that sort of excess sometimes. The ribbon on the handle is a favourite part, it's very girlie.
I wanted to make the lid sit right back so that one could work out of the bag without having to open the lid each time something was needed out of it.
Another change was the pocket in the lid which is now a zippered one so that stuff doesn't fall out.
I'm back to quilty things now that I'm all bagged out for awhile, it was nice to have some finishes for a change.
I hope all our friends that copped Hurricane Irene are safe and well and not too many are doing without power. My thoughts are with you.

Very cute! What's the thing you would change?
omigosh! i want one, it's soooo cute!
So lovely! My favorite part, after the applique is the binding and the circular quilting and the handle with the ribbon and the lining fabric and and and.....
This bag is just too cute!!
Super cute, and you did all the right details! A lot of work goes into these projects, so I'm sure you will be getting lots of compliments when to take this to any classes!
I'm 100% happy with it. ;) We're so critical of our own work sometimes, aren't we? I think you did a great job and it's adorable.
It is PERFECT! And I love the fabric you used inside!
I love your bag!! The panda costume panels are adorable. Every little detail looks perfect - down to the quilting along the top. You make extraordinary bags :0)
Never to be defeated - great challenge and you have made a great success!

I adore these bags of yours Janet, very clever and gorgeous! xo
Wow, that bag is gorgeous, Janet! Beautiful work. Well done on sticking with it until you were happy with the design.
Your bags are unbelievable! That panda is the cutest!! Variety is the spice of life! Your quilt projects will seem all fresh and exciting after the time away from them.
Janet!
This sewing case is just adorable! I love the applique on the top and admire your ability to make anything!
Hurricane Irene was quite a punch but thankfully everyone I know is okay, few are without power but doing well.
Thanks for your well wishes!
Your dedication to the cause is inspiring, the bag looks fantastic and I am sure will be very practical...any chance of a pattern!
Happy quilting, Sue SA.
such a cute bag! I love everything about it!
This little case is adorable and is bound to be well loved.
I have so enjoyed your bagathon posts and hope you will throw the odd one in here and there for all us bag junkies :)

It's so sweet - I can't imagine what you'd change, it looks perfect! I can't remember if it was a pattern or whether you designed it yourself so I'm off for a stroll through your archives!
What a lovely sewing bag...I've missed so much, will try to catch up and see the beginnings of this bag!
Utterly amazing. I am so impressed.
This is just adorable, Janet!!
Your bags are just wonderful! Very happy and bright.
My son goes to school in Upper Manhatten, and he called last night to say everything was fine in his neighborhood. The power didn't even go out. His main inconvienence was not having the subways running.
Gorgeous bag...love it!
This bag is spectacular! I just love seeing the drawing you did come to life. The little embellishments are darling. You've done a wonderful job of tweeking the design. I really like the improvements. This bag is fantastic!!!
I find bags like that a complete challenge. Quilts are so much easier!! You've done the cutest job. I adore it. Wish it were mine.
What a great pattern. Where can I get it? The whole bag is perfect.

Just so, so lovely! The front is not over the top at all - just as it should be:) I love the depth of it when opened. Have a great week:) U
very cute.......
Just lovely Janet...you will be the most glam of bag ladies!
Well, I think anything worth doing is worth OVER doing!!! Your OVER the top is just perfect for me!! More is more don't you think!!!
Those little pandas are perfection!
So, so adorable! Just love this bag in every way! Great work, Janet!
Love the Fabrics..Great Bag.
cheers
I was thinking I was going to have to start calling you The Bag Lady! Your work is so precise and beautiful. That is THE cutest bag...

the bag is just adorable!!!! love the applique as well as the bag handle!
the way the top stays open is great!
perfect for working right in the bag is she wanted to!
so pretty!
I looked back but don't see the pattern you used. Do you mind sharing? The bag is so cute - I'd like one and I know my daughters and granddaughters would like one, too.
Too cute and what cute fabrics you used. Well done.
Oh Janet - that's adorable! I LOVE LOVE that little person on both sides. You're just toooo clever!
I am really in love with this bag. Those appliqués are sooo cute!
I wish I was a little girl again. Its beautiful.
Your bag is just the happiest carryall ever!
Thank you for visiting earlier and leaving such caring thoughts. It means a lot.
I just love this bag! Your changes are great and the applique is just too cute... what a great way to take a break from quilting - thanks for sharing!
Isn't it a great feeling when you have mastered something for your own use, the next one is always a little bit better, Like the way you put the zipper on the pocket on the lid . I have seen pockets placed on the side , I thought the pocket had been put on wrong until I used it and thought that's a neat idea.
Fabulous!!! And crazy cute. I love the look of it as well as the thoughtful design and functionality. You've certainly created an amazing sewing case!
This is so so cute!
Oh my goodness Janet.. Your BAGS.. they are the most fantastic ones I have seen in a long time.. so so adroable!!! Love everyone of them!!! WOW!!
It's adorable.
I enjoyed looking at your blog.
