This is made with the Agatha Bag Pattern designed by Emma Brennan. It can be found in her book Making Vintage Accessories.
I have always been a huge fan of all Emma Brennan's designs! In fact, her patterns were some of the first bags I ever made. I learned several bag making techniques from her patterns. She has a web site (www.CharliesAunt.com) and an Etsy shop (www.CharliesAunt.Etsy.com.)
I made this bag in an afternoon...start to finish. I have an event to go to and I want to take a smaller bag. Since these bags are quick to make, I might have enough time to make another bag. Of course it is out of different fabric. I happened to have two fabrics that are the right color and style to go with a skirt I have in mind. Then I will have to decide which goes best with my outfit. :)

This is the front of the bag. That scallop detail is actually a working pocket. I slipped my cell phone in there with no problem. I'm not sure how well you can tell from the picture, but I also chose to use the wrong side of the fabric to make the scallop pocket. Yes....I meant to do that. :)
This is the back of the bag. For the handle, I used some faux leather that I had left over from a previous project.
The inside of the bag. I made a divided slip pocket.
