Messenger Bags


My sister-in-law, Loretta Jankowski, is a classical pianist and movie music composer. She lives near some dynamite fabric outlets in New Jersey and shops for fabric for my bags. I love what she picks for me. These messenger bags are from the latest Loretta fabric. They are lined with dark denim and have six big pockets inside. I like the way they look. I made the straps longer as per Mia's request and Carol Crayonbox's suggestion. One character in the Woodstock movie wore a messenger bag with a very long strap that let the bag rest on his opposite hip. Very snappy indeed. I had to hang them on my silo for the picture - interesting prop, huh? Got my almond soap made tonight. Beautiful sunset.
