Still one of the most popular bags that I get orders for, the
Sydney Messenger Bag by Swoon (affiliated link) was thrown into the lineup for my Christmas rush. This one wasn't for a present, but it did ship with a wallet that was a gift!

I have a (small-ish) stockpile of fun Nightmare Before Christmas licensed prints that are quickly getting used up, but this purse we ended up settling on only 7 different prints. Inspired by the
Super Fandom Sydney, this one is pretty crazy but definitely fun!

| I went through all those faces as I made this purse... |
 |
| Zipper that gave me issues...but is much straighter now! |
 |
| oops, almost had magnet heads! |
 |
| underside of the pocket flap, finally got the placements right so they didn't have magnet heads! |
This one I did exactly as the pattern calls, except for the flex foam interfacing. It really gives a good structure to the bag without adding a lot of weight or bulk. Oh, and I think I added in slip pockets inside. I've done it so many times that I'm not really sure if that is part of the pattern or not...

I can't wait to see what fun mash-ups I get to make in 2018!
