AAA-shee



My dear pregnant friend Ashley, or as Jack says it..AAA-she, is about to have a bouncing, baby girl! and a million light years ago she asked me to make a diaper bag for her. She picked out the fabric, ribbon showed me the pics and discussed the details. I will say this, There was no rush on the order- because she is not due for till Feb. but still, I did want to have the bag done by now. haha. well, holidays happened.

This is a pic of a bag that she saw and wanted one like it. The problem is that is costs a measly $175. Its super cute, but I don't know about you but I can't afford a bag like that.

So she bought the fabric (didn't I say that already :) and I sewed. a whole lot cheaper.
We chaned the style a little bit- to how Ash wanted it.
For instance she LOVED the brown fabric, and wanted it to be the main fabric. but if she put the light green on the bottom it would show the dirt easy. So we did brown on botton, and more of it. Green on top and less.

We did the ribbon, and pockets galore.She wanted a thick long strap.
The bag is lined top to bottom- so it stands up on its own!

We also decided to have 2 stretchy pockets (my favorite part) on the outside. WE ALL know how handy those outside pockets are!
