Assembly

Once all sections are completed, sew in any ends you

have.

Start by sewing the bag flap to the back of the bag. Once
this is done, you can then attach the handle, straps and
ears.

For the bunny tail, I used a medium sized pom pom

maker to make my pom pom. Remember to leave a long
tail on your pom pom, then sew this onto the middle
section of the front of the bag, underneath where the
bag flap finishes.

Thread the drawstring through the loop holes on the

inside of the bag.

If you fancy, add a popper button or clip to the inside of

the flap, though I left mine as it is.

Please note. I do not mind this pattern being made to

sell, I just ask that credit is given to myself, the designer,

Facebook.
