Barbados Bag Two

Driving home from work this afternoon I was thinking about my Barbados Bag.  It worked really well over the suitcase handle

And will be great filled with drink, sunnies, book and towel for a walk to the beach, but may be a bit big for shopping or travelling

It so happens I just *may* be travelling tomorrow too - on a girly trip to Gibraltar, which was really why I was thinking about the suitability of my big bag . . . so I planned a new, smaller, version, and no one was home when I got in - so I made it!

Same fabric

Same inner pockets, same zip pocket and my usual purse clip and secret slip pocket,

And almost the same outer pockets - but can you see the blue zip at the bottom of this pic?

It closes to make an outer pocket . . . or unzips to open so the bag will stand on my case


So I'm ready for some autumn sun this weekend, as well as ready for my January holiday (did I mention I'm going to Barbados?)

  3. I love both these bags, with their great fabric that is all matched so nicely. I'm filing that bottom ziper idea away to steal someday. You know, like if I ever go to Barbadoes... Have fun on your weekend!

  8. I hope you had a good time in Gibraltar. Your zippy pocket at the bottom of your bag is a really clever idea :)
