The patterned bag above (and below) is a heavy home-dec fabric. I love how graphical the pattern is. I used the free bag pattern in the post I referenced below. Easy peasy.
I also attached a charm to the front (see that little silver flower?)
This is the back, although really, I don't suppose it matters much.
I always put a length of elastic in the bags--sewn into the linings--to attach to key rings and wallets. So much easier to find my keys than digging around in the depths of the bag, and of course, if I didn't put in a zipper (or a wallet Lo-Jack), it's great peace of mind to attach my wallet to one of these elastics.
Above is the pleat and waist seam on the back of the leather jacket I made. (I used the same modified Butterick 5145 I've been using lately. I still need to take in the shoulders.)Below is the top front.
Below is the purple lining of the leather bag I made. 
More elastic thongs, and a little hand charm I attached to the thong.
The zipper went in better than I had any right to expect; to celebrate, I popped a B charm on it. 
All in all, a productive weekend.
