I missed the deadline for the Wonderland Bag, since I was waiting for parts to arrive in the mail, but I wanted to make sure to catch up with the Bee Sweet Bag. Overall, I liked this pattern - it holds weight really well, but I'm not that pleased with the flap. Instead of deco-fuse, I used two-sided fusible peltex (#72F, I think). I also added peltex to the sides, since I didn't want them to cave while it's snapped closed. I didn't appliqué the flap accent, since I don't have a blanket stitch, and my cut was a little too messy, so I stitched a ¼" basting line, and folded under, then topstitched on the flap exterior. I think it turned out okay, but the flap is a little too small for this bag. I think added snaps on the outer parts would make it hold better (total of 3 snaps) and keep its shape. Anyway, glad to be back. =)
