yarn.

the chart.

Assembly and finishing:

Press the bag on the wrong side with a steam iron.

Place the sections right sides together and sew the side seams by hand or

machine. Work a finishing round of single crochets with white yarn around the top

of the bag. Arrange the butterflies on the front of the bag as shown and stitch

them in place. Work the flower stems in stem stitch using a single strand

of green yarn. Sew on the flowers.

Cut 2 19-1/2” lengths of ribbon. Sew on the ribbons to form 2 handles. Cut the

lining out to the size of the bag, adding on a 3/8” seam allowance. Sew up the

seams.

Place the lining inside the bag and stitch it in position.
