Apple Green Fat Bottom Bag-I've still got the Fever!!

[yarndiva]

This was for me originally (you know, the you never know who'll get the bag as a present stash), but our church Children's Sunday School coordinator will be moving away and I think tomorrow is her last day so this will be my Thank You gift to her...she did drop a hint that her birthday was in March and Green is her fave color...so...

Beth, Your bags are beautiful! I think I have a touch of that fever too! I have made 3 "fat bottom bags" and am working on the 4th. I love the Apple Green. What is the color called and is it red heart??

[yarndiva]

It's an apple green mercerized cotton thread (5/2 is the size, I think) that I found on eBay last year. I have a yarn winder and wound the cone into 4 balls and there is probably 2/3 of a ball left after it was all done

Beautiful bags! I do like that green! She is sure to like it!

I have visited your site twice now and just love the bags that you make! I have never tried to make one and would love to know where you find the patterns for them?

[SDmom]

Love the bags!

I absolutely, positively LOVE your fat bottom bags! The colors are beautiful, so vibrant. I especially like the green one. I would love to make one of those. It seems my project list is growing. :nbook I had no idea how addicting crocheting could become. I have more project ideas to start than I know what to do with. My husband just said the other day, "Shouldn't you finish one thing before moving onto the next?"

Beautiful!!!!

 

Where do you find the wooden handles?

[addictedtoyarn]

LOVE it! What a nice gift

[carovan]

I love your bags. The bright colors seem to be very popular this year. Your friend is lucky to be getting this bag.

[ginamaria73]

It's beautiful. Guess I am the only one having a problem with this pattern! Ugh. I want one!

[thebratfink]

Someone is gonna LOVE that!

 

Beautiful work!

[Roli]

[debidoodle]

Perfect bag!

Hi Everyone!!

 

:ty for dropping by and taking a look at my bags! It's so awesome that the bags are turning out better and better!

 

I think I should post the source of the pattern everytime I show off a FBB bag I made..I keep forgetting, sorry!

 

It's from Stitch 'n Bitch: The Hapy Hooker by Debbie Stoller. The pattern is called Fat Bottom Bag. I only used the pattern exactly by itself just once and then did my own take on it for the rest of the bags.

 

I still have a Denim bag that 99% done and a lavender one and a black one that's 40% done. They're on hold as I am making Spring/Summer apparel for my girls (and me)

 

The wooden handles I got at Hobby Lobby. Michael's, JoAnn's or other craft stores should have them as well.

 

Again, for all the wonderful comments!! Bags are the easiest to make when you have only one cone of a color that you were hoping to make into apparel

[Julexia]

Your purse looks great in that color! I love apple green. Great job!
