Bags for my Mum in law

Hiya! Here's a cross body bag and a little purse I made for my Mum in law. She chose the fabric, and I was a bit worried about fitting the seagulls in without decapitating them, but I'm pleased with how they've turned out :)

Here's the bag. It's the Two Zip Hipster pattern, from Dog Under My Desk.

Here's the purse I made to go with it. It's the  Lori Pouch pattern, by Lorelei Jayne:

I've definitely caught the sewing bug! Bit obsessed...

Lori Pouch

Hi, I made this pouch a few weeks ago, to match the Two Zip Hipster bag I made. It went a bit wrong when I was turning it - I was stuck in the lining somehow! I think I'd accidentally sewn through both lining pieces when top stitching by the zip - what an eeejit! So I had to undo the stitching from inside the lining, and then I was able to turn the pouch. So one side of the zip hasn't got top stitching now, but hopefully it's not too noticeable! I'm really pleased with it, anyway :D
