How gorgeous is this bag? If you have never sewn a bag before, this is an easy** U-Handbag tutorial** that will give you a good push. I suggest that you use a fabric as gorgeous as the one Lisa used here so that you will be incredibly proud of what you made. Something in the girly and floral range so that it will complement the bamboo handle quite nicely.

This one is made of oilcloth. I have always wanted to use oilcloth for sewing but I can't find the right machine foot for it. Yes, mine didn't come with a non-stick foot. If yours did, you will want to try your hand at this wonderful U-Handbag tutorial. This type of backpack is perfect for those trips to the city that will require you to have two free hands.

If, like me, you are unlucky when it comes to pretty glasses cases, this U-Handbag tutorial got you covered. The fabric Lisa used is stinkin' cute but you can always use one that matches your personality. You don't even have to add the bow if that's too girly for you; but really, how can you not love the bow? It's cute!
