Here are pics of the bags I've recently finished. The LB tote is from their "5 Crochet Bags" leaflet and the other two bags are from the ASN leaflet "Trendsetting Totes." I followed the patterns to the letter for the LB and Duffle totes, and just made minor changes to the Stylish Shells to lengthen the back, add a button and button loop.

EDIT: I've added pics of Drew's Chic on the Halfshell to the end of the post.

My beautiful model is Sami. She thought the LB tote made a great hat. :manyheart

The first pic is the empty purse lying flat. In the second pic, there's a skein of yarn inside.

The tote does make a cute hat! The P&C colors sure made a neat design. Isn't it nice when it does that? Great job on all of them!:clap

Very nice bags! I still haven't tried Drew's Chic on the Halfshell (I'm still mad he named it that, I wanted him to name it something else... so when I get over it I might make it... just kiddin' :lol) I :heart your little model!! I just want to kiss those chubby cheeks! ;)

It's in a leaflet called "Trendsetting Totes." I think Annie's Attic may have it, but I'm not totally sure.
