A sneak peak!!!

Hi everyone, I would like to wish you all a Happy Easter !! I'm participating in a bag swap organized by Snickerdoodle dreams. This is the first time I have to make something for a swap. I've been a bit nervous. I have to make a bag. Any bag I want for a secret partner than I receive a bag from another secret partner. Well, I did make a bag....then decided I didn't want to send that one. I wasn't confident it would make the grade. It's nice, but not great. I also wanted to push myself a bit beyond my comfort zone so that I could grow and learn more skills. So this is a sneak peak of the bag I'm making for my partner. I made a spring appliqued scene for the front of the bag. I'm not following any pattern. I'm just making it up as I go. So it will be totally unique. I've changed my mind on a few things. But, it's going well. I hope my partner will like it. Happy Stitching! Ariane :o)
