Anyone care to update their diaper bag list...true confessions!

[twofallbabies]

LOL, my list isn't going to make you feel any better, but your list sure makes ME feel better! :)

Land's End Little Tripper (3- new in Navy, older in Red, older than old in green)
LL Bean Diaper bag in black w/lime
Olive Cord Skip Hop
Navy Kecci
Mama-Made Apple Cord bag (Link)

The Skip Hop and Kecci are both unused with tags still attached, as I'm not sure I'm going to keep them just yet (The SkipHop doesn't seem big enough for me, and the Kecci is so pretty I'm afraid I"m going to "hurt" it!). The LLB is my main everyday bag. All the LTs are FS; the Navy and Red are gently used and clean, and the green is never-used and NIB. My Apple Cord Bag I use occasionally, but not much since I got the LLB bag, which I love.

Skip*Hop Duo
and many many more I can't think, but DH has said "no more", so I'll wait a while before ordering.

I haven't gotten the Bolsa packed up yet, but it seems cool. The straps are a little tiny bit short.......
I have Jacob in the charms! Every time I carry it people think that is the cutest thing! Fortunately I only had to order the J, C & O because I used the B &a from "baby". They are HARD to put on though......I think I got mine from pinkmascara.com

What's the woowoo pattern? Sounds fun!!!

Have you joined babybags on Yahoo yet?

Ooh--I love that apple cord bag! The size looks great. I'm trying to sew a toile and denim one now, but we'll see if it's finished before DS is out of diapers, LOL.

[callalillyanne]

May I ask how much you got your Bolsa for? I saw one on ebay for $190 buy it now, but I was just weondering if someone might have one for cheaper in the future...$190 is still a lot better than $280 though!

I think I might get Angel for the charms if I get the jet set bag...my daughter's name is Angelica but we call her Angel for short!

The woo woo pattern is like this dark eggplant purple brocade with these light greenish and purple poppies. The lining is an off pink/rose color... it looks much better than online, I will try to post the pics in the near future, plus I want to do a review!

And yes, I just recently joined the yahoo babybags group, I love it!!!

"but we'll see if it's finished before DS is out of diapers"

Oh yes, that was my worry with this also! But my name is Mom, so "procrastinator" is in my bio, right? ;) Make sure you use a good sturdy interfacing like Peltex or Timtex in the bag it you want it to do anything but droop over! I forgot that part, and ended up raring to get moving on making the bag, and didn't want to stop everything to go get the right interfacing first. I might make another one someday though, and denim is a great idea too! And Joann's has great brocades as well, especially the prequilted ones. :) That pattern are you using?

My baby is only 6 weeks old. I have a problem!

I have:
-- Vera Bradley Baby Bag (I use it all the time)
-- Kecci Shanghai - I have one and I'm waiting for the other one (color was out of stock after I ordered) - Use on occasion.
-- Skip Hop - red canvas (Only used once)
-- Freebie black hospital bag - DH uses. Plus I use the cooler all the time.

Returned:
-- Vera Bradley Carry All - too small/redundant at this point.

Eyeing:
-- OiOi Lime Dot Messenger
-- New Skip Hop Messenger
-- Those Cord Skip Hops that are on sale at brownsonfifth

[zapmansmom]

Ok, not as many as you but enough.
Have:
Le sportac floral diaper bag ( never used)
Large Kate Spade tote (way to big and heavy to use)
Mothership ( love the bag but not how it is made. On my third bag in 5 months)

On ordered and on the way.
Alpha 7 blue
Lands End Day tripper old styel ( sale in outlet section 17-)
Pursonaitly mess. backpack.

Plus I have a Mc Kaenzie sling up for sale and I just gave away a Amy Coe and a Babystyle to the local Womens shelter. ( hated both bags)

Would like a Skip Hop and T&L

Thanks for the advice and encouragement! I've got Decorbond and some cotton batting that I'll use between the bag and lining if it needs a bit more body. I spent hours pouring over the pattern catalogs in frustration before finally finding exactly what I wanted on a free website. I'm making a bigger bag and adding 5 interior pockets, but here's the link to the original pattern. (It's a photo tutorial, so it's slow loading.) It's shaped like a lot of the Ebay seller's bags.

DH and I have just decided to sell our home and move to something larger before trying for baby #2. After realizing how much we have to do, I may give in and put my beautiful fabrics aside for a few months. Oh well, maybe it will be baby #2 who gets the mama-made bag. I'm determined to finish it, but when is anyone's guess.
