VW Beetle Makeup Bags

 I really wanted to make a small makeup bag and incorporate the beetle somehow. I apparently have a beetle obsession.I began by self drafting both patterns.The first is your basic squared bottom zippered bag. The second is a long rectangle puch that folds over and closes with a loop and button. I love how quick and easy they both can be made up.
 I accomplished the applique with the help of my husbands drawing skills. He drew me a sketch, and I traced it onto my fabric and cut it out. Next I zig-zag stitched it onto my interfaced bag fabric. I free hand cut out and sewed on some windows and wheels, and my bag was complete. 
 I'm really happy with the end result.
