I look at a lot of the Drops patterns, but I usually change something about them. On this bag, I made the bottom pretty flat instead of pointed and I put drawstrings at the top instead of just straps. I used Orchid for the bottom, Ocean for the shells, and Lavender Blue for the drawstrings.

I made the drawstrings on my KK Spool loom with 5 pegs. This makes a nice round cord that is cushy on both hands and shoulders.

6-6-2014 I gave this bag to Tricia, my home care nurse. She’s been refusing everything I offer her, saying she just doesn’t have room, but somehow this bag crept into her tote and went home with her! LOL.
