Drum roll please.....here they are:

Proud owner of the Amy Butler bag (Why does this one seem bigger on a taller recipient? I guess wrong camera angles can add 10 pounds).
I'm really happy how these turned out! It was difficult to make both at the same time -- my girls have figured out that being first is synonymous with owning mistake riddled prototype. So I alternated between both and thus equally distributed the mistakes :)

P.S. I'm trying to work out a pattern for these, but the gusset dimensions are a bit fiddly.
ETA: Without errors, each bag should take 4-5 hours to cut and sew. Cutting time was longer due to limited yardage (and to center motifs). Another hour to draft and cut pattern pieces.
