Finished it up Friday...Mo-ped and Polka Dots Bag

Rolf is good sewing help! I have been toting my cross-stitch project in a burlap Londonjack bag I got when I visited England a few years ago.  The inside plastic layer has begun to crumble...oh dear! I didn't bring much fabric from my house so I am a bit limited on sewing projects right now. I did however bring the fat quarters I bought on that lovely trip to England!  I figure those are pretty appropriate fabrics to use to make the replacement! On a side note, I am really enjoying my new Janome that I purchased shortly before getting married. I got it mainly for it's zigzag and button hole capabilities, but boy am I glad to have it now. Not moving my treadle was kind of nice, it's heavy!! Anyway, back to the bag!! :) I bought the mo-ped and polka dot fabric in England and had pulled the other fabrics from my stash to go with them. I paired them with parts of my husband's holey jeans. The colors really coordinate well and it should make for a good bag b
