Yep….I know I have been quiet BUT believe it or not, I have been busy! AND it is almost time to release a new pattern BUT, as usual I need HELP to come up with a name for my new bag! Hey…I can’t do everything! LOL So….here are some pics:
Here are some details:
FEATURES: The Hipster may not be big in size but it makes up for that by being big in style! Simply perfect for a day out when you don’t need to cart the kitchen sink! Sporting an adjustable strap and a cute curved top which gives you that bit of extra room to get into your bag. The main zippered compartment is roomy providing 2 card pockets, a slip pocket and a zipper pocket. The front of the bag has a zipper pocket, a slip pocket and a phone pocket so you are sure to be able to take all your essentials and stay organised while you are at it!
Approx. size: W 20cm X H 25cm X D 4.5cm. (W 8″ X H 10″ X D 1¾”) (Do you think this would be classed as a mini hipster?)
TO ENTER: Simply leave your name (Or names!) suggestion in the comment section below! PLEASE also leave your name ….PLUS….and this is REALLY important…a method of contacting you should you win!….HINT: I am leaning towards a name other than a persons name and not one describing the fabric! 😉

Competition closes Wednesday 29th Oct 2014! ………….and I can’t WAIT to see what you come up with! 😉
Oh and if you haven’t signed up for my newsletter yet, now is the time to do it and get 20% off the pattern which will be released on, or close to, Friday 7th November! 🙂
Thanks everyone! 🙂
P.S. Please forgive me for not personally replying/commenting on all the comments and name suggestions for this post….if I did, I would be here all day instead of working on finishing up the pattern! LOLL….BUT rest assurred I READ and appreciate every single one of them! 🙂 Thank you!

“On the Hip” or “Hip to Go” are my suggestions for this cute bag.

Miss Chic & Discreet
You have done it again–another wonderful bag! It looks like the perfect every day carry! I love the curve of the top, so maybe something inspired by that? The Bowed Bag? Half-Moon Satchel? Swoop Satchel?

Hi there, Christine, I might be missing something, here, but why are you not calling this cute bag “Hipster” ?
It does seem like you’re already thinking of it that way, and it does actually suit.
Anyway, whatever you decide to name it, it’s a real cutie 🙂
Juliet Bag, Zippity-Do Bag, Romeo Bag, Bunny Bag, Rose Hip Bag. I am not good at naming things, by this is fun. LOL
I use a bag like this for shop hops. So how about the the Shop Hopper or Shop Hop bag.

I love it!
How about Side Kick. Great bag and thanks for the giveaway!
