Ok I’m back on my bullshit re my sister’s bag. Sewing room is tidied and then gently re-mussed via some mending and so I can use it again.

The front and back of the body have been sewn together and fake-felled (seam allowances are sewn to one side, but not fully encased - the bag is lined and I singed the edges, so I’m not worried), magnetic snaps and bottom straps sewn to the front panel, and the back & side pocket assemblage have been sewn to the back with a fully encased seam. Now comes the tricky part of getting the side pockets done. I marked the line that the edge of the pocket needs to land on and carefully pinned, then stitched it down. The bottom corner is still free, but I’ll do that in the next couple steps.
