Project Five: Nappy Bag

This is my favourite thing I've made so far, mainly because its something I use every day. Its a very practical bag, with customizable pockets on the inside for all the things that I want to carry around.

The fabric is a heavy weight cotton, and I've used thick wadded interfacing on the exterior panels.

The pattern directions were quite difficult to follow, and the bag also uses a deceptively large amount of fabric (around 5 meters of the exterior and lining fabric, plus interfacings etc). So unless your fabric of choice is reasonably priced it can be quite expensive to make.

However, that being said, I love the bag. Its easy to carry and also fits perfectly over the handle bars of the pram. I look forward to seeing my husband out and about with it over his shoulder when he has our daughter! Just kidding, I'm going to have to make a daddy diaper bag for him that is a little more manly.
