After finishing the dolly highchair, I decided that Scout also needed a diaper bag. I started with this tutorial and used the leftover fabric from the highchair cushion. I didn't follow it to the letter, because I made the decision while at home in a blizzard and had to make do.
At the last minute, I added the pocket. It's just wool felt with her name machine embroidered.
I have spatial issues, so the bag is bigger than I would have liked. Probably a little too big for her. But it doesn't stop her from dragging it everywhere, draping it over her shoulder, or something even hanging it from her neck like a ginormous necklace. On mornings that I take her to daycare, she insists on grabbing her "purse" as I'm gathering my work bag and laptop. Had I known that it would be drug across the garage floor (and all our floors really), I probably would have used a more forgiving fabric.
Inside the bag was filled with lots of random baby items: dolly bottles, spoons, baby food, pacifiers.
She often picks up her bag (or bags) and says "Bye guys," and heads into the other room. She returns and screams, "I back."
