I can not beleive it, but I finally finished sewing my OOT bags. We only needed 12 of them, but I have never sewn before and I wasn't working from a pattern, just my sister and I figuring out what to do as we went. So I am super proud of myself for getting them done! If I could do it over, I wouldn't do so many, cuz it really took alot of time. Like ALOT. (We were originally planning on about 24 bags, so we have 2 different prints to be the main bag, and the lining and straps were going to be blue, orange or pink. Since we only needed 12, and we had already had all the orange and pink cut, we vetoed the blue.) Most of the bags have an interior lining that matched the straps, but on some of the pink bags, we used pink straps and orange lining to fun it up a bit. Here are some pictures.
