Making bags inspired by our Great Yarmouth topic

We have looked at various bag designs, chosen a purpose and a user for our bags and designed our own bags to suit these. Also, we have practised hand-stitching and machine-stitching different styles of stitches. Some prototypes have been made and now we are making our full-size bags...
