Hexagon Bag


Today I am guest blogging a review of the Hexagon Bag pattern from Natural Patchwork by Suzuko Koseki over at Sew Sweetness's blog. There are a ton of prizes for purse palooza so check it out.

Here is a picture of the books that have the pattern. I forgot to include the pic in my guest post.


And because I have arthritis, which makes it a pain to sew hexagons, here's one more gratuitous pic.

  1. In the knitting world the word "steek" sends some grown knitters into a frenzy just at the thought of cutting into a finished item. I would think one could "steek" an envelope style bag after the fact and give it an oval bottom? (mentioned not using it enough because of the shape in guest post... ;) As the owner of a couple hexie UFOs - yeah for gratuitous pics. Worthy!
