Ruffled bag

My Mom bought these fabrics when we were in Holmes County over Christmas.  She wanted a bag made to give to a friend.  So a few weeks ago I finally got it made for her.  Now she has it for whenever she wants to give it away!

I used a canvas bag from Walmart that I already had and just added ruffles, cut the old handles off and made new ones.  I saw this idea here. Gotta be the most simple way to make a ruffled bag!  I just used a rolled hem on my serger to finish the bottoms of the ruffles.  One of these days I'm gonna get me a ruffler for my sewing machine and then it will really be easy.

Yummy.  Wish I could take a bite right now!  Chocolate helps everything right?  And if you don't like chocolate I'm sure you have some sort of comfort food that fits the bill.
