In spite of the fact that this is a quick and easy bag to make, this one took me forever to finish! It just got mixed up in my giant pile of unfinished projects, which, to my satisfaction, is growing smaller every day!
This is my summer, all-purpose, take-anywhere bag that carries whatever I need it to. Doesn't everyone need/want a summer bag like that?
I thought maybe a sew-along is in order, but I wanted to see if there is any interest first. There are so many wonderul quilt/sew-alongs already in progress that the timing might not be right.
I would like to put together a tutorial and post it progressivly over one week. That way we can go slow and everyone has time to catch up and work at their own pace. Questions/comments/suggestions would be posted and discussed on Flickr (a Flickr account is free and simple to set up) and that always makes it fun to get to know people.
This is a great project for a beginner or anyone wanting a new bag. Photographs will highlight each step so even if you are just starting out, you should be able to follow along just fine.
So, is anyone interested? Tell me what you think.
PS--the fabrics are from the Avalon Collection by Birch Fabrics and Metro Living by Robert Kaufman.
