My finish this week is the Jane Market Bag that I have had on my to-do list forever. This bag has been cut out since Christmas, waiting for me to sew up. Why did I procrastinate for so long? Who knows but I do know that this is a wonderfully written pattern and a breeze to sew up - even those pin tucks! This is my ALYOF February Goal so I am super happy to have it completed - finally!
As I don't have any of my own labels at the moment, I added some 'hand made with love' ribbon. You can just see it on the outside pocket in the picture above and a detail picture of it below.
There is a super deep pocket on each side so you can store coupons or whatever you desire! This tote holds a lot of stuff and can hold a lot of weight too. Here it is with a 3 kg bag of dog food and there is still room for more stuff!
How about you - what have you finished recently? Incentive: every person who links up a finish here this week will be entered into my draw to win FIVE Red Rooster fat quarters and a handmade thumb pincushion with pins. Winner will be announced on this post and emailed early next week. Open internationally.
Please only link up finishes and posts that link back to the TGIFF party so your readers can find us and link up too. If there is no link back to the party, you will not be entered into the draw. Please be kind and visit the link to your left and to your right and say hello to some fellow linkers!
Good luck and thank you for sharing a finished project!

Love your bag and tag!
It seems you skiping spring and you are ready for summer already :-)
lovely bag! I'm giggling about the tiny bag of dog food though - we have to get Katie's in 12kg sacks ;-)
Cool bag! I made a couple of similar ones and you know what? I keep forgetting them at home when I leave for the grocery store!!! :-). Thanks for hosting this week.
Too cute!
Your bag is so pretty! Roomy bags are the best!
I always procrastinate on small projects too. Sometimes I'll just stop at the last couple of steps and it will take me months to take five minutes to finish it! :D
Amy...what an adorable give-away! Thanks for the chance to win...the pincushion is a total bonus. Val from myplvl.blogspot.com
Ooh, well done, Amy! Love the bag - I've got to make some of those market bags. I know what you mean by procrastination too. :) Thanks for the great giveaway and for being our wonderful host this week!
Love the very spring-like fabrics you used in your bag.
