Well it's done. Not sure I like the flap and may well take it off in due course!!!
I've put two short lengths of velcro at the top each side of the flap so if that goes then I'll add a strip more of velcro. That's literally all I had left to make it anyway.
I made it with a big gusset so that it sits firmly and then tapered the sides in so that it doesn't 'gape' while sitting there.
The lining is from my stash so that didn't cost me anything either. I SO love the colour and it's going to be a useful bag to put all my tatting 'bits' in for my trip to Canada and the Fringe Element Tat Days.
To say I'm rather pleased with it is an understatement.

Love it!!!! The shape is really good. I like the lining too :)
I love it! And I think the flap should stay, it looks very elegant. Did you have a pattern?.You still have time to add just a touch of tatting to it.
No pattern, Maureen. I make bags up as I go along. Lots of thinking and planning, though!
Perfect!
You SHOULD be chuffed. It looks great!
The inside and outside look fabulous together!!! :) Great bag!! :)
I'm speechless! Finished already! Beautiful bag - nicely thought out! Great lining. I love the flap and see a nice spot for tatting and beads.
The bag looks wonderful. The lining looks like it was made JUST to go with the outer fabric of the bag. The whole thing looks so happy and bright.
