Ok, I just pinned this, it might be exactly what I'm looking for. I'm having a boy but I've always been a firm believer that the diaper bag is for the mom more than for the baby and can still be pretty with a boy baby!
I just love this bag! My kids are older but I'd carry this around anyway! Beautiful!
so pretty abby! It looks really well done and loaded with useful stuff
Wow! I just purchased this pattern and I am SO impressed with how clearly it's written, and how beautifully illustrated by the photos! I was a little daunted by 46 pages, but in fact it's done incredibly well and I am super excited to start! thanks so much!
Such a cute pattern :-)You never cease to amaze me Abby!
Just bought the pattern & pinned it. I have been looking for a great diaper bag pattern & this is it.
Question - what heavy duty interfacing did you use or would you recommend?
Belinda - I like to use Pellon 950F ShirTailor - it's quite stiff and does a great job to help a bag keep it's shape :).
Love it!
This looks great, like the look of the wide strap for comfy carrying
I wish I could just buy the bag...feeling too lazy to sew it! Ha! And cute name choice...is this an announcement of your baby girl's name?? ;) good luck with everything, I keep waiting to hear your news!
This is SO fantastic!!
This is gorgeous!! If I didn't already have a new-ish diaper bag, I'd totally buy this pattern today! :)
Love this bag! Although I must say, I'm intimidated by sewing it! Zippers and heavy fabrics have never been my strong point....
Hi!

kendra
Hi Kendra! I don't make items to sell, but I wish I could say that I did! I just don't have the time, and I have to say that designing patterns is where my heart is! I am working on a few licenses right now with others to make and sell the bags though, and I'll be sure to announce it on the blog when they're ready!
I love the fabric of the example bag! What are they?
MamatoMany - Thanks, I do too :). It's Joel Dewberry's Heirloom line, in home dec weight!
The design of the fabric and your pattern. Having many things to put in a bag is a fact for girls and this bag can hide those bulky things. I'm impressed.
My mom bought this pattern from you a few months back and made me 2 diaper bags. I received them yesterday at my baby shower. This is going to be my fourth baby, and I can tell you as a mother with "experience", these diapers bags are amazing, beautiful and made well!!! Thank you for creating this pattern!
I love the bag pattern. What fabric design did you use? I love the purple and green one.
Jacque - thanks :) the line is Heirloom by Joel Dewberry, one of my fav's!
I used your pattern to make a bag for my friend and she loves it! (I also love the pattern) I posted about it on my blog today... http://www.madeitonmonday.com/2013/02/lola-bea-diaper-bag.html#
