Pattern Info


Instructions

Be prepared to go through several denim needles when you make this bag, you will be sewing some very thick layers. It is well worth the cost of the extra needles because these bags are great for everything! They have lots of pockets and the pattern shows two styles of bags for which you can use per-quilted fabric or quilt your own.

Difficulty:

Category: Quilting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Casual, Cute


Materials

Fabric, thread, several denim needles, cutting and sewing tools.

What was your inspiration?

My Mother made this bag and once I saw how handy it was, I knew I had to have one too!

What are you most proud of?

I have made many of these bags that I have given as gifts over the years and people just love them and still talk about them years after they have received them.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Make sure you use denim needles to sew this project.

Thank you and I have a confession. This bag is a couple years old now and I have used it so much that the top of the handles is worn out but I did my best to hide it from the photo! I have another bag cut out and ready to sew because I can't live without this bag!
