DayTripper

Here is my DayTripper from Dog Under my Desk. I love this purse. I found this fabric last year on clearance and knew I would wait until I found a really cute pattern to do something with. I have been following Purse Palooza 2013 from Sew Sweetness and saw the DayTripper. I knew it would make a perfect Halloween bag! I made the mini size, which fits me perfectly.

There are 2 slip pockets on the front, and a large zippered pocket on the back. I put 5 assorted sized pockets on the inside, plus a pen pocket. A girl needs lots of pockets!

 

 

Here is the inside. As my grandmother always said, "A place for everything, and everything in it's place." 

I was so excited to learn a new technique on recessed zippers. I've never been thrilled with having tabs on both ends of the zippers. Dog Under My Desk showed how you can easily make a recessed zipper with just one tab on the end. Her instructions were wonderful and I love how it turned out. I have already used that technique on other projects.
