      I dont sew. Was this bag very hard to make? Would the pattern be too hard for a beginner?

      Thanks for the comments! To answer the question about whether it'd be good for a beginner: It wasn't that it was super hard, but really time-consuming and parts (the assembly of the exterior, mainly) were definitely tough and resulted in more broken needles than I can count!. Maybe as a beginner you'd want to start with a different pattern. The Amy Butler In-town Bag pattern is simple and quick and very cute.

      It looks great!

      And I would definitely NOT recommend this pattern for a beginner. It would be too discouraging as a first project. Better to start simple and grow!

      THis looks great. Love the subtle fabric with the AB patterns. So used to seeing them with AB prints, that it's easy to forget how lovely the shapes of the bags are. Very nice.

      I'm going to have to try this bag, I just find her patterns tough for a lazy sewer:)
