A Silly Bag

The inspiration for this cute and silly bag came from another of my favorite blogs:  Bloom.  I love her style and just reading through her blog is relaxing.  I thought this bag looked so fun.  I decided to make it a bit bigger and use it as a diaper bag.  That old black hospital issue thing is frumpy and not cute.  It was time for my diaper bag to break out of black!
Mine measures about 10.5 inches tall and about 14 inches wide with a 4 inch wide base.  
I did Bloom's faux-piped handles and I like how they turned out too. 
 I also put pockets inside.  
My favorite part though is the little ric-rac flower I made to put on the velcro clasp.
I've been toting it around some lately and I love it!
