Hi! Was doing a sewing organizer, but turned out to be a little tote or crayon case etc. Have you ever started out to sew something and decided it wasn't working out? Well it happen to me. First time I did this pattern. Had it for years decided to make it (McCall's 4274). Well the instructions weren't clear enough for me. When I sewed it up didn't look like correct. I brought the bottom up and made it a pocket also. First Pic is the pattern, 2 and 3 pictures is my version. The oval and the cat are designs from DBS. I took the ponytail design and enlarged it. I then took the cat and decreased it. How did I do? I'm sorry pictures are sideways.

It's amazing what we can make without really trying, repurposing a pattern is always interesting.. well done

Do you think I should have made the patch another color?

the pink used on the other side would have been nice as the oval, but this way is nice also
