Yet another Noodlehead pattern for the win!
Did I need this bag?
Not really. But it was great fun to make and I know I will put it to good use. I joined a couple of friends one afternoon to make our Explorer Totes and we had a blast.
Adding a zipper was optional - you could also go with a magnetic snap. The pattern instructions for adding a zipper were really good and I will likely refer to them when adding a zipper to a different pattern.
The back of the bag has two nice large pockets.
The fabric print is from a Zen Chic line Bluish. I used Soft & Stable and this turn lock. The lining was some scraps from (I think) an Art Gallery fabric.
You can never go wrong with big pockets! That's really good to know that these zipper instructions were so helpful. I'll bookmark your post so I can go buy the pattern should I ever need to tackle one. Thanks for linking up with Favorite Finish.
