Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I am in the process of making this bag today, and I am positively flabbergasted at how inflated the fabric quantities needed for this pattern are! There is no way on God's green Earth you need 1 1/8 yards of both the exterior fabric and handle fabric! I have way more than 1/2 yard left of both of these, and about 1/3 yard left of the lining fabric as well.
Plus, the layout instructions for cutting out the pieces is terrible! It's like they want you to waste as much of the fabric as humanly possible. I guess maybe Amy Butler is hoping you'll use all of her own fabrics to make some extra $$$'s off the inflated quantities this pattern states to buy! I recommend buying 1 yard each of the fabrics at the very MOST, and using common sense to layout the fabrics better before cutting it so that at least you can utilize all the leftover yardage for another project.
