Give me a Name!

I need your help! I have made these beautiful bags but they do not have a name! 
Each one is a convertible bag, which means you can carry it as a shoulder bag or a backpack!
 They are very spacious with two interior elastic pockets. This one in the Eiffel Tower print went to the Art Teacher at school. She has a little one of her own and she said that the backpack mode is wonderful and leaves her hands free to help her daughter.  
I love it when a bag has more than one use. 
The bag in linen is for my sister, she has a greyhound named Max. I thought she could use it for going to the outdoor markets and beach with her puppy. Now she just needs a matching collar for Max!
 This Zebra print bag is going to my Step-Monster, I mean Step-Mother. :) She has a job that takes her all over. If you like to travel (or have to travel) this would make a fun carry all bag for any adventure. 
So, now I need your help. If you have a clever name for this cute bag please share!!! 
Any suggestions are welcome! If I use your name I will send you a free epattern from Sew Spoiled!
Thanks!

okay --- so it's a convertible bag... convertibles remind me of the breeze in my hair, and it looks like a breeze to convert, so...

That bag is fabulous!
When I think of convertible I always think:

"Cabriolet" or "Cabrio" for short.

I had a VW Cabrio, LOVED that car!! =) This bag would have looked wonderful sitting in the passenger seat ;)

The name of a bag is really important to whether or not I will take a second look. That may sound dumb, but it's true. I liked the Weekender Tote before I fully checked it out because it sounded like it would suite my weekend trips to my parents house. With that said something like
Delightful Doubler,
Adaptable Tote,
Freestyle Carryall, or simply
Convertible Tote sound great. That's all I have so far. =)

At first glance I thought these bags looked like apples or maybe pumpkins. How about...

the Apple-Bottom Bag?

or

the Harvest Sling/Backpack?

I can't wait to get my hands on this pattern. Congratulations on another fabulous design!

great names so far! I quite like the one "Delightful Doubler".
Only one I can think of are-
Double Joy Bag
Duo-licious Bag
Double whammy bag! :)

Wow, there are some great names already.
Since this bag has dual purpose straps, it seems the name should be two words? (most of your bags have one name in the title, French Cuff being an exception).
How about "Dual Duty"? or you could use the name of one of your chlidren?

BTW, I especially love the Eiffel Tower fabric. What a wonderful gift.
Peace.

The first thing that popped into my head was the "country traveler" It has a casual yet purposeful look to it. Or maybe "country convertible".
Oh and its beautiful!

I'd call it the "sew spoiled mixer bag" since you can wear it two ways to mix it up.

am curious to when the pattern will be available for purchase. I'd like to make this before I go into labor in mid march.

I love the bags but I am not good at picking names, the name that came to my mind is the 'Do-it-All' bag!

Sweet Coin Purse Tutorial for Teacher Gifts

This time of year is so special to me because I get to show my gratitude for all of the hard work that goes into teaching my daughters. I love to make handmade gifts and this year is no exception. Since money does not grow on trees around here, I looked at my stash (I keep my scraps in hat boxes ) and tried to see what I had a lot of; small zippers, trims, Peltex strips ( from making iPad cases ), fabric scraps and some hardware for key fobs. So I set to work.  Materials: Plastic multipurpose 5" Zipper  Fabric Scraps Lightweight interfacing 808 Pellon Trims (We clipped  key fobs  with 1.5" swivel hooks onto our coin purses . There are tons of tutorials on making key fobs .) Step 1: Print out the Coin Purse Template  PDF.  Cut 2 main fabric, cut 2 lining and 2 interfacing using the template.  Optional: Cut a 2"X2" square of your choice main fabric or lining. This strip of fabric is used to clip a key fob to your coin purse later....

Veruca Salt Dress

Every year we perform a musical and one of the highlights for me as a theater mom and seamstress is I get to make costumes! I love sewing and when I can sew for a show or for a music reason it is awesome! This year was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and I was able to recreate Veruca's red dress. The first step is to find a sewing pattern that I can manipulate to look like what the character needs.  I wanted to make the dress out of Pont de Roma fabric so it moved with the actress. Then I remembered the  Marianne Dress by Christine Haynes , it is perfect because it also had a peter pan collar. The peter pan collar did have some issues. I did not want a t-shirt binding. Also, the back of the collar did not have a collar. I drafted a back collar piece and since the opening was not stretchy, I created a keyhole with a button and loop closure. I lengthened the sleeves and used the cuffs from the pattern for long sleeves. Next, we added the buttons! We al...
