At first, I thought it is boring to sew again this older pattern of mine- Danielle bag. I don’t even remember how many Danielle bags I sewed in the last years!

Now that it is finished, it is a lovely reminder of how beautiful and interesting this pattern is.

What could be better for a bag (and us!) than a front pocket with easy access?

All the fabric used is heavyweight cotton from Ikea. Interfacing is Decovil light. The bag is sturdy and it keeps the shape beautifully.

Outside pockets are becoming an essential feature in all of the bags I carry. I recently mixed things up by making a bag with only interior pockets, and I was surprised at how much I missed those exterior pockets!
You was using a lovely fabric for a pocket, Geta. This bag is absolutely stunning.
It is beautiful! I love the easy acces pocket!
Precioso bolso!!
