Triceratops Messnger bag

[Crow Jane]

I based it mostly on the easy tote tute - http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=52143.70

But I prefer messenger bags and made it up a bit as I went along. Not perfect but I really love it.

Very nice job!

[Crow Jane]

Thanks so much. 

I have only started sewing and this is only the 3rd thing I have made on my machine. What should have been a 4 hour bag took 24 hours but I am happy with it.

I just used the longest piece of denim that I had left and luckily it turnd out to be a great length for my height.
43 inches - 110 cm.

I like your version, especially the dinosaur!! 
How did you do that part...did you hand-paint after transferring an image?

Thanks for the compliment. It really means a lot to me.
I just used an iron on transfer and tweeked the original picture's colour to make it stronger and more vibrant.

Copy away. I don't mind.

Remember that show "Walking With Dinosaurs"? The makers are doing a live show (world tour) and kicking it off in Australia next January!!!! YAY! So I made it because I can't wait until then to see dinosaurs. Already got my front row ticket.
