What are you most proud of?

As a beginning sewer, I am very proud of the fact that I managed to keep the stripes almost together! I also have made a similar bag before, and managed to hide the fact that I always get some bunching when I sew the top together. I didn't keep one section open in order to put the bag right-side out, but I kept the two ends open, then I put in mini-pleats on the sides so they matched. This allowed me to disguise the extra material that would be bunching. I also like the fact that I used a top stitch all the way around, not just to close the bit that was left open to turn the bag right-side out.
