Baby or Sew ?

Hi ladies sorry I didn't get my August project done on time but it's my first pass. 

 On August 28th we were blessed to receive our first grandchild. So I just had to go see her.....

I have finished the bag now so I hope I am not in too much trouble with Chooky and Susan. 

I don't know about everyone else but I had some trouble with the lining????


Filled with some Anni project to finish

All done
