Yesterday morning, I happened to see Jen of The Fabled Needle asking for pattern testers just in time to join in. (Yay for Google Reader!) By 1 AM (today), I had a fresh new bag and feedback for Ms. Jen.

It’s a super-cute bag, and I loved the fabrics she used for hers. So I went with an equally easy-on-the-eyes blue-gray palette.
One of my favorite things about it is that it’s totally reversible!

How adorable is that?

Thanks, Jen!
The Wendy Tote pattern should be available in the next 1-2 weeks in Jen’s shop, love, Liette.

This is a very cute bag - both of your renditions are very charming. I’m glad you’re back - I missed all your great sewing projects that you share. How long have you been sewing?

I’ve decided I want to commission you to make something for me. And this bag inspired me. I would love a durable tote like bag big enough to carry my school books in…wanna make me one? I will pay the big bucks to have an original kristena derrick piece :)
