Grown up bag

I have finished my Mouthy Stitches Tote and guess what it actually looks like a proper bag, you know like one a proper grown up person would make and use! I love it!

Bag front

Bag back

A little bit of hand stitching around the stars
I tried a bit of hand stitching around the stars with some perle cotton. I have never used it before and I am now a convert. I love the way it makes the stars kind of sparkle.
Wow I made a grown up bag!!

    That is so pretty! I love the combination of text print/grey for the background, and you are right, the Peale hand quilting does make the stars sparkle. Love it!
