A little project for me

 Sometimes its nice to do a little project just for me.  I have been having a lot of bad luck with handbags recently.  Straps breaking and items disappearing into the lining and just not finding a bag that I like.  Then I came across the vintage fabric above and loved it.  I was going to make a skirt, and I still might, then I had a brain wave.  Handbag, the fabric is perfect.  After a few minutes of thought and a quick design taken from a very old very much loved bag I had the pattern sorted.  Once I had done one I could not resist doing another and I love them both.  I just need to remember not to wear the skirt and the bag at the same time or I will look like a right numpty.  Then I thought I might make some more bags for my shop.  What do you think?
