Hi Dianne, love the jacket, I like the colour and the added twist you put to the pattern with your self drafted pockets. Clearly your not finding it to hot to see or maybe find the coolest time of the day to see, we are farther up the country to you Northumberland but I have found it to hot to do any think, any way rain is on its way so we are lead to believe and hopefully cool things down.looking forward to next video..oh by the way what was the dress you were wearing and pattern? loved the colour and style what I saw of it. Have a good week. Susan.🌺🌻🌸🌼

Thanks for making this bag. I was reading the instructions and just got confused. Your video is so much better than the written! This will be my weekend project! I made the bestie bag last weekend, another crescent/croissant bag, and I am excited to give this one a go! I'll be extending the strap and possibly adding lobster clips and strap adjusters to one side.
