And here's how it turned out:
I had a few left over fabrics laying around so I pinned a flower that I previously blogged about here. For this bag, I did not put a magnetic closure since I wanted it to be reversible to a cute fairy fabric:
The flower can easily be un-pinned and re-pinned on the flap when the bag is turned over:
Some thoughts for future next messager bags are: a little pouch holder for a cell phone, a pocket for a water bottle, and maybe back pockets. This is a neat project a beginner sewer! The sky is the limit in adding emblishments to this project...
