I will eventually finish writing and illustrating the sewing instructions and put the pattern on in my Etsy shop. <br /><br />But using the jacket can work for any pattern. Most pattern companies have a pattern for a messenger bag. I did a search online and found this one http://www.simplicity.com/p-5266-mens-messenger-bags.aspx It's a bit wider than mine but it works.Sonia Valdezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18228901348398332512noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3062976936402834496.post-80139076355027657772010-09-06T08:10:29.126-07:002010-09-06T08:10:29.126-07:00I love how you did this!

I only came to thank you for your kind words but now I find my self reading and reading. First in your profile I see you live in Indio, CA. When we moved to the left coast that is the first place we stopped in CA. Until now I haven’t heard of it again lol. <br /><br />The jacket into the purse is a great idea! Looks amazing, you are definitely talented! Karmen brought me her shirt that needed mending. Being the Nana I said “sure I can sew!” long story short I managed to sew it to myself. Needless to say, I appreciate others talent! <br /><br />You have a great weekend, thanks for stopping by my blog J <br /><br />Patty <br />http:/www.nanapoppins.comNana Poppinshttp:/www.nanapoppins.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3062976936402834496.post-12204468569439558752010-09-03T12:47:10.876-07:002010-09-03T12:47:10.876-07:00I love it!
