Amy Butler Messenger Bag

When I cut this out, I thought I would never be able to make it.  There were 4039 pieces (slight exaggeration).  But I made it through it, and I'm pretty pleased.  It's got 3 zippered pockets, plus a hanging tool pocket on the inside.

Wow.  Nice job and way to stick it out!  Her patterns can be overwhelming. 

It was so worth all the trouble that it gave you! Its so beautiful.

This is really beautiful. I am pretty new to sewing...have made a few potholders and about 10 Amy Butler frenchy bags (everything I've posted on this forum have been frenchy bags, sadly) but I am so nervous to try zippers and pockets.
This messenger bag is so gorgeous though that I really think I need to try to overcome my fear and do it...a bag with lots of pouches and pockets is SO much more handy than a big old sack of empty space. Congratulations - this bag is awesome!

Great job! 
We finished the same project on the same day!
I love your fabric choices.
Nicely done:)
