Today I’m sharing the last bag that was made at the Wizardry Getaway, the Hiraeth Handbag by Lavender & Twine.  I love Lavender & Twine patterns and this one did not disappoint.

Krystal Convertible Bag!

Today I’m sharing another bag made at the Wizardry Getaway, the Krystal Convertible bag by Linds Handmade!  Lindsay actually taught this pattern at the getaway and it was really fun getting to know her in person.  She’s spectacular 😀
