I just got an idea yesterday that I needed a cute travel bag.  So I overthought it for awhile  And decided to make the Aragon Bag, a pattern by Sew Sweetness.

Well this fabric is just pretty darn awesome.  At first I called her Mary, then I figured out she is Our Lady of Guadalupe.  But I am just tickled that she now has a green zipper passing through her breasticular area.  I’m pretty sure I’m going to like this bag.  Though I don’t think it’s big enough for a weekend getaway.  And in an astonishing turn of events, the darling Miss O declared her undying love for the project in it’s infancy.  I think she thinks it should be hers.  There might be a tussle.

Okay.  This dude just plain makes my day.  The guy on the right, the one with the hella good hair/feather headdress.  And how ’bout that skeletal dude with the shot, the one who looks like he’s wearing a zipper pull as a monocle?  But really, you should check out the zippers.  There is something intrinsically satisfying about having awesome, colorful zippers sitting around just waiting to be inserted.  In fabric.  Through Mayans.

I think this might be a whole bag tomorrow.  And I know just the person to model it for the photo shoot.

Stay crafty, my friends.
