BONUS#1: I finally got to use the charming cabbage-themed fat quarter I had picked up many moons ago!
BONUS #2: Enjoyed making and using it so much that I whipped up another one for Anne-Marie B. who was leaving the Refugee Hub to move to the federal government. Made her a lunch bag with an urban/bureaucracy vibe to it--- I hear it is used frequently, so am glad she is enjoying this little gem of a bag as much as I am.
Will likely be making more of these in the future. Fun pattern to bump into-- thanks internet/ The Chilly Dog!
