Have just finished my second bucket bag. Have lengthened the handles by a total of 4 inches and think its much better

What do you think?

Had a go at this bag tonight but as it was a try out I used some fabric that didn’t matter if it went wrong. Not a disaster but not great. Have definitely decided that the handles need to be slightly longer. Also need to tack the binding first so that it’s neater. Also not too sure about which interfacing is best. Will be interesting to see other Shabby chic members’ efforts.
