Baby bag

[bluehwys.livejournal.com]

After my sister had her baby in January, she had a ton of crap she was hauling between her house and ours. She asked me to make a bag to hold everything so she only had to bring one bag. So I dug out some twin-sized flat sheets that weren't being used, did some measuring, and got to sewing.



34-3/4 inches wide and 30-1/4 inches tall (not including straps)



She wanted a pocket on the front that she could toss some small toys into. The pocket's roughly 14 inches square. This was also the first time I'd ever sewed velcro.



The lining.



This was totally unplanned, but the whole thing actually folds up into the front pocket!




Now that the baby's older, my sis doesn't need to carry as much crap (also, she left some stuff at our house so she wouldn't have to haul stuff between houses), but I'm sure the bag will get used again when the baby gets to be a kid.
