My sister-in-law is going to an overnight visit to a group home & to help ease the worry our youngest daughter thought a bag of some things for her to do might make her feel more comfortable. Everything must have her name on it so of course I had to embroider her name on this book bag. The font is Heart Alphabet (not sure where it comes from as it is an old file (2012) but it is one of my favorites. I thought it went well with the outside fabric hearts & Butterflies. I love adding ribbon to the straps I think it adds another dimension to the bag & as always all my bags are reversible. I think the turtle fabric adds just a touch of whimsy too

Oh! how thoughtful of you Loralye, your SIL will love this. I think the whimsical fabric will bring a great big smile to her face. It did mine! I love the Butterfly and heart fabric as well. Love Chris

we have just come from giving Elaine her new bag & she was quite thrilled with it & can't wait to take it to her sleep over. I am very happy to be able to help her with this transition & I hope that she has a wonderful experience there this weekend. She must have thanked me 5 times a very good sign that she likes it. Thank you all for your support
