Fabric Flower & Amy Butler Field Bag combo

What to do when a storm knocks out your cable and you can't watch the new episode of Army Wives?
Make a Shabby Chic Fabric Flower! I attached it to my Field Bag.

I know.....I didn't use the same fabrics as in the bag. I was feelin the need to be a little unpredictable.

Fabric Selection for sewing the Amy Butler Field Bag & Tote

The Patterns we've been waiting for showed up at the door yesterday. Oh Happy day!
Both the Mini Dress/ Tunic/ top and the Field Bag and Tote patterns look easy to sew.

I am having a hard time deciding WHICH I want to make first. I will be sewing the Mini Dress/Tunic in the Wildflowers - Turquoise fabric which is featured on the pattern cover. Amy Butler likes it and so do I!

I will be selecting fabric for the Field bag from this bundle........
