Next sew along project

It has been way too long since our last sew along. 
So, I decided we should have one..

I am thinking of the piping-hot hobo pattern from Lisa Lam's The Bag Making Bible. 
 
 
The last bag I made from this book (which was also a sew along I put together) was a Reversible Bucket Bag (FREE pdf). We had so much fun and learn a lot along the way. 



What do you think? Any of you interested to join in the fun?
