\"Vervain<\/a>
Vervain front<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I finished the Vervain belt bag the other day. This is definitely a bag I need to make again to improve my skills.<\/p>\n

I did find that the bag went together more smoothly than I anticipated. It made me happy and it made me confident enough to try the Allium bag<\/a> soon.<\/p>\n

This bag is really making me consider buying a rivet press. I got the magnetic snaps in with no problem, but it was a bit of a struggle. What is stopping me from buying a press is space. Where would I keep such a huge piece of equipment? Not sure, so I need to clear some things out to make space.<\/p>\n

\"Vervain:<\/a>

So this bag has a flat front pocket. The snaps are on the front and don’t meet when the bag is as it is shown in the first photo above. The snaps are uneven so the pocket can fit something with more dimension.<\/p>\n

I was able to fit my phone in that pocket, but not very well. I wouldn’t store it there on a regular basis. I would use that pocket for lip balm, wet wipes and other flat items.<\/p>\n

\"Vervain:<\/a>
Vervain: back<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The back has no pockets, though I could have included a vertical zipper pocket. I might if I make this again.<\/p>\n

I also used a really nice parachute clip for this since it is for my aunt. The clip is a little heavy and that is a concern, but we will see. I hope it doesn’t prevent her from using it.<\/p>\n

\"Vervain:<\/a>
Vervain: interior<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Inside is where I would put my phone, if I were using this bag.<\/p>\n

It has a zipper that closes the bag completely and also an interior zip pocket for more security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
