A while ago in a pattern sale I found this and so, why not? This is a vogue pattern V8942 and is mostly made from scraps from a suit I made a few years ago and some pink PVC, some shaggy pink fake fur,a pair of teddy bear eyes and some key ring parts. The pattern was pretty easy to follow but the sewing machine struggled with the leather despite using a leather needle. At some seams it gets very thick and the feeder couldn't handle it so the leather trimmings aren't quite straight. But it's got loads of pockets and a very handy back pocket with key ring. It also matches my passport case so I'm going to look unbelievably stylish when I go on holiday tomorrow! If you're going to try the pattern yourself take care with the tiny seam allowance: you want to avoid material that's going to fray.
The good news is there's a frog back pattern too so watch this space!

Ohh I love this! Long shot but do you think you'd be willing to sell this pattern or a digital version of it? Been looking everywhere since I found your bag and I can't seem to find it anymore! I've seen others but the way you did your blue froggie is SO cute!
