It's great learning new things! Like I posted previously, it was wonderful to see that I could crochet my straps. What a time saver! I also had a DUH moment this morning when adding the straps to the purse. I used to poke my holes in the bag and then struggle getting the straps in the holes before they closed up. Then I thought about the old safety pin trick used when adding cording or elastic through a sewn casing. It worked with this too! DUH! That's okay, it's not like I'm not going to make another Booga! In fact, after this one, I still owe Pat another, all black one, and I'm making myself an olive green one with a band of olive green fun fur near the top. Can't wait to get started on those.

Love your Booga! I am making my first one and I think that the design possibilities are endless. The two solid colors together are great and kind of sophisticated.
