Wow! Thank you for showing the flat version. I like it so much!
Your bags are just wonderful. Made one of these a long time ago and think it is time to make another. Thank you so much for the inspiration. Lyn
Wow.Wow...Wow...this bag is a wower....love this bag and all the embroidery....this has been in my to do list since I saw the pattern more than a year ago....Stunning designs and great work.....couldnt take my eyes off the bag....positioning the designs is lovely. The handle is so pretty. My mum, brother, sil and children came to stay with me for the school holidays , they didnt allow me to touch my tablet....missed all the posts...catching up now...spent most of my time in the kitchen...it was a joy to have them anyway....school starting tomorrow and they just left.

Wow, a lot of work but turned out beautiful. Thank you for sharing.
Just love the blue bag. Hope you are proud of yourself.
Beautiful Mandelas Fatima & what a wonderful way to showcase them!~hugs~
Beautiful! That took some calculating to get the motifs where you wanted them. Impressive work.
Thank you so much :)
Yes I had planned it this way....every design is the opposite colour of the other side!
In the pic above 1 block was placed wrong then I fixed it before putting the bag together :)
This bag is so lovely. Just beautiful. Lots of work went into it I can tell.
this bag is so pretty.. lots of work here.. turned out a real beauty..
Love your color choice! Your new bag is gorgeous. Did you make your own designs?
Thank you so much :) I am glad you liked it!
No these all are free designs from different sites!
EWE!!! I NEED one of these! Great job! Exquisite bag!
WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Fatima, you've done an outstanding job on this gorgeous bag - I LOVE IT! I do hope you are keeping this one for yourself! As Lillian has mentioned, you are a very talented young woman. Well done, it looks fab! Love Chris
Thank you so much Chris :) for appreciating and your kind ...sweet words!
Well everything I make I do feel like keeping for myself but right now I am working on making some gifts to take back home for my family when I go for vacation this summer!
So I think I will have to just choose between these 2 :)
I am very happy you liked this!
So beautiful!! You have inspired me to try my own!! Thank you!
That's a beautiful work. How much time do you think you have in it? I'm thinking I have lots of mandelas....
Thank you so much :)
Well this one was quicker than the first one as these designs took lesser time to stitch out! I was doing 2 in each hooping which took around 15-20 min each and I embroidered 20 squares!
Handles were done in 3 hoopings and both were done together side by side in a hoop ( so the length took 3 hoopings)
The bag is pretty easy and quick to put together. ..its just tye embroidery that takes time! Give it a try...it is worth the time :)
Absolutely stunning.. How very talented you are! You have created an amazing work of art with this bag/Lillian
Beautiful use of the variety of mandella design. Thanks for showing us.
