I really wanted a Kath Kidston bag in a blue butterfly design but didn't like the price tag to go with it so bought 1 metre of the fabric instead in a different colour for a lot less. Plan to put it with plain brown corduroy and make my own. hugs Mrs A.Mrs A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14938668067423094462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5085124969212957190.post-8778429501400393102012-03-21T11:15:22.752+00:002012-03-21T11:15:22.752+00:00Love the bags, thanks for your visit ... still try...Love the bags, thanks for your visit ... still trying to work out 'the dark arts'?Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03567533920526308116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5085124969212957190.post-78883258429218571572012-03-21T11:13:05.915+00:002012-03-21T11:13:05.915+00:00I love these challenges, it's great to see eve...I love these challenges, it's great to see everybody's ideas.
