Lillian's Blanket and a GIANT Bag...

So I just thought I would post the finished blanket for my niece...(sorry about it being kind of blurry!)

 

.

And now I wanted to show you the bag I made that can fit a small child in it!! Unfortunately everything doesn't turn out as planned....

 

I needed a "big" bag to take to church with me, it just ended up being a "giant" bag.

I started with 4 18X18 inch squares (2 outside and 2 lining) then I decided I wanted a flat bottom and added 6 inches there, then sides and added 6 inches there. So when it was said and done it was a lot bigger than when I started out!! But hey I wanted a big bag and I got one. So here it is....

 

 

I also did a pocket on the outside, although its hard to see.

Inside I added 2 pockets on one side.

 

And added a bunch of spots for pens and markers on the other side.

 

See a small child could easily fit in there!! ;)

I really like how it turned out, and I definitely plan on making more. Maybe just a smidge smaller though! ;)  Thanks for stopping by!!

Until next time....
