I love the color combination even though at first I wasn't sure if just using 4 colors would work since all the others I've seen have so many, but I like this.
I think the handles need to be a little bit longer too, at least for me, so I'll also change that with the next bag I make.
The flowers have got to be my favorite part of the whole bag, instead of making them all the same, I changed out the colors so each one is different.
So quick and so easy to make, you really do need to give it a go.
I also changed the handles, I made them thinner than Lucy's, hers were 7 rows and mine are only 5, not that much of a difference.
So there you have it, my crochet bag completed and it only took me 2 weeks and that's because I was on vacation, if I actually count how many days I worked on it, then it was 5 days. Not bad for such a cute project huh?
What do you think? Are you ready to try it out for yourself?

It's beautiful! Great job!
well done, sandra!! my favorite part is the flowers too!
Hi Sandra....love the bag! I think the colors you used can take you right into the fall season. I like making the crocheted flowers, too. Trouble is, where do I use them all? What's the next project gonna be?
Love,
Amy
I LOVE IT. I WISH I COULD DO THAT. I AM NOT ADDING THAT RIGHT NOW TO MY LIST OF THINGS ALREADY. BUT YOU DID A BEAUTIFUL JOB. NOTHING LIKE MAKING SOMETHING ON YOUR OWN. I LOVE READING YOU BLOG ALSO. KEEPING UP WITH IT EVERYDAY.
Oh my goodness, that is too cute!! That would be a great giveaway bag, LOL! Hint hint. Just kidding. I should learn to crochet, knit, and all of that. The cute things I could have!! =)
Wow! You did a great job and the flowers look perfect! I think your color choices go well together. Pat yourself on the back!
It turned out beautiful! I love the colors! You did great!
oh my goodness Sandra, it is sooooo cute !!! i love it ! i don't think it is too big at all ... but i guess that depends what you are going to use it for !!
I love your color choices. It turned out lovely.
It turned out FAB! Love the colors. I think just using 4 is just as nice as having too many to choose from.
Have a nice day dear! And enjoy the bag.

Love this! I'm going to have to make on of these!
You did an absolutely fantastic job!! Fun and cute!
Girl, that is just too cute! I love it! You do such neat work. :) It is such a good feeling to accomplish something like that, isn't it?
very nice job. I am starting the handles on one now and will send it to you to see. I love to crochet and Lucy really inspired me to what pretties you can make with it. Thanks for the food ideas.
I love it!!! came out adorable..
Wonderful bag!!! Here's 2 hints, though. Those straps will stretch over time, so you may not actually need to make them longer next time. Also, a really easy way to make the bag smaller is just by using a smaller hook, one size down, or even two, will make a nice difference and then the "fabric" of the bag will be more dense.
Love it! I plan to make one soon, too :)
Awwwwww it looks really beautiful!!
i know it IS a big bag, but I originally designed mine to hold all my yarn and current hooky projects, os it needed to big cos I have me a lot of yarn!
I've a design in my mind for a smaller bag, different style :; it'll be my next project after BB.
Been lovely visiting with you...thanks for sharing!

I love your bag! I am in the process of making one of my own. I am wondering, did you follow Lucy's pattern exactly? I would like mine to be smaller and I want see figure out how many rows to do. I know she did 14 on the bottom.
Thanks Sandra! Again I love it.
