Pumpkin Patch Weekender

Pumpkin Patch Weekender If you like travel bags that are girly and offer easy access to your things, this is a wonderful tutorial by the ladies over at Kojo Designs. I like this bag because you can sling it across your body, too. Nothing like free hands to peruse flea market and souvenir stalls.
