\"Coneflower<\/a>
Coneflower #2 Hackney, Aug 2023<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Another Hackney is in the books. The Coneflower Hackney #2 is finished and the recipient should have received it by now.<\/p>\n

Remember how I talked about DecorBond in my last post about this bag? You can see how great the top looks in the photo – flat and smooth. I love it! I am so pleased that it looks that good.<\/p>\n

\"Coneflower<\/a>
Coneflower #2 Hackney, Aug 2023 – front, top<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It really surprises me how different a bag can look with different interfacing.<\/p>\n

In this version, I sewed the top stitching, to close the turning gap on the inside<\/a>, from the top. I wanted the top stitching to look good from the outside as well as close the gap. This is something I have trouble with repeatedly, so I did it slowly and with care. I think it looks good this time. Still not perfect, but I am getting there.<\/p>\n

\"Coneflower<\/a>
Coneflower #2 Hackney, Aug 2023 – end with handle<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I think I have finally gotten the handle placement down. I think these bags are just way more useful with a handle. I wonder what inspired Sara to make this bag without a handle? I suppose it could be used in the bottom of a suitcase to corral all of those random items one needs on trips that aren’t clothes. Maybe the Minikins Season 3 video<\/a> says something about that. I don’t really remember. <\/p>\n

I have seen Gerre carrying hers by the handle to Sew Day, so I know the handle isn’t superfluous.<\/p>\n

\"Coneflower<\/a>
Coneflower #2 Hackney, Aug 2023 – inside<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I had a little trouble with the back panel on this one, but the inside still looks good. I really like that bright white fabric.<\/p>\n

I also remembered to put labels into the lining front panel this time.<\/p>\n

I have made a number of these Hackneys<\/a> and haven’t gotten one perfect yet. I really worry that I will never be able to make a perfect bag the first time through.<\/p>\n

I am not finished with this pattern yet. I just cut one out for my Dad using the leftovers from his birthday pillowcases.<\/p>\n
