Cargo Duffle Bag

This morning I woke up at four, because of some party people passing my window screaming, laughing, singing. Good for them, that they had fun. I was awake! And I couldn´t fall asleep again. At six I decided I had to get up. At 7 I decided I had to make a cargo duffle. Now at nearly six in the evening I am done. The bag is finished. Nearly. Inside there is still a mess, but this will be solved tomorrow with the serger at work. It is a wonderful pattern by  noodlehead.


As I made a promise to myself not to start new projects, this was a bit of a compromise. I used the Anna Maria hexies, I had lying around for ages. I like the look they give the cargo duffle. Because I  didn´t want to cover all the hexies, I decided to just make one little pocket.


Unfortunately my "new" old sewing machine had some tension problems and the quilted area in the dark fabric doesn´t look so nice. But you know what I don´t care. I like the bag, I think I am going to use it quite often, is has the perfect size, maybe even for a everyday use...?
Here you go, the Cargo Duffle. And the little pocket still needs some snaps.

  1. It looks fantastic! Probably no-one else would notice the tension problems in the dark areas. Glad that some creative mojo has returned!

  2. it's my favorite cargo duffle that I've seen so far... and it makes me want to push making one for myself a few notches up on my sewing 'to do' list,

  5. Ahh die hab ich schon seit Monaten gepinnt und will sie unbedingt auch mal nähen :) Schaut toll aus!

    Vielleicht können wir ja an unserem langen Näh-WE wieder ein Taschenprojekt zusammen nähen.

    LG
