(That thing I was going to explain later)

IF YOU read my last discussion then you'll know I had something I said I'd explain later. Voila, here is the thing I said I was going to explain later. Is a picture enough explanation? Probably Not. This took me three days to complete. Do you like all the color changes? I do. The color is a little bit brighter than what is shown here. I listed this on Mercari for like $17. We'll see if I get any bites. In the meantime I plan to make more. What do you think? (it's a market bag that could easily be used as a purse)

Thank You! This pattern was so much easier to work up. That's a better representation of the colors

@CarolDM Very bright and cheerful, right? I felt like they were Autumnal colors.

This is a different bag then what I was making before. The other pattern required me to stitch the bottom up. This one started with a magic (cinch) circle.

@Nevena83 Thank You! The tutorial I followed did not suggest using a contrasting color in the handle (the tutorial maker had the remainder of the bag one color) but I wanted to break up the orange again. I also used a different stitch for the purple in the handle so that I did not have to go around the bag twice with purple.

Thank you! I am making more and going to list them everywhere. I also had the idea to make beach cover ups, but those take more time.

@Marilynda1225 Absolutely. The only thing is that I don't know how to size them up. I can only make them based on the pattern I find.

@ScribbledAdNauseum this is the perfect season for beach cover-ups. People are going back to vacationing this summer.

What, exactly, is Mercari? I have heard of it before but never really checked it out.

It's an online marketplace. I know very little about it, but it seems similar to ebay or facebook marketplace.

I've had lots of views but zero bites. That was on facebook. I'm trying Mercari now.

Thank You! I would like to ask for that price, but I am afraid no one would pay it, so I lower it.

It makes me think of Autumn or of the Latino culture for some reason.
