Zakka Along Week 17 Handy Market Tote

I have been a bag maker for many years. I have made all types and styles so naturally I LOVED making this bag. So far I have made a total of 6 of these useful bags. This pattern is great and the instructions are written very clearly. Everyone I know must have one of these for Christmas! I have cut out a few more and I will stock pile them for the upcoming holidays. There IS only 99 days till Christmas. :)

I had a special order from a good friend of mine.She custom ordered a pair of bags with dragons on them.The bags were a special surprise for her daughter and her daughters friend.The two are really into dragons and she wanted to have something special made for them.
Sometimes I get request that i just know are not my thing so I turn it away.
Other times I get excited to step outside of my boundaries and make something new.
If I really enjoy creating it and love the way the project turns out, I add it to my regular line of work.
I struggled a bit when I created these bags, only because I have never drawn a dragon before.But I really like the way they turned out.
This experience has inspired me to think up some new patterns.
I'll post some pics of my new work when it's complete.
