Cosmetic bags - Take One

I thought I'd try my hand at making some little cosmetics bags. The design is mine (although hardly original), and in my head, it was very easy to put together.

It proved less easy in reality.


It looks just ok here. I'm not about to provide any close-ups though.


It's a little bunchy around the end of the zip and I cleverly put the handle on the wrong side. I'm also going to use ribbon for the handles from now on. That thin little handle was a total pain in the rear end to make.


Here it is next to some every day items so you can see how big it is.


I'm going to keep working on refining these 'til I get them right! More sewing coming this week!
