Messenger Bag

I have been looking for a great trendy bag to tote around my Bible and all of the extra stuff that goes along with it (highlighters, study guides, journal, etc....). I was beginning to give up when my sweet little Madison came in the room carrying a little purse made for her by my friend Sarah. Sarah is very creative and always makes fabulous things. I think what makes her gifts so wonderful is all of the thought and love that is put into each one. Anyway, without knowing it, she inspired me to try my hand at making my very own messenger bag. This bag is actually one that I just finished for my niece for Easter. I am making two more just like it for the girls. I love the way it turned out and had lots of fun making it!
