This is the bag I use every Monday, since more than ten years, when going to our quilting meetings.
When a friend of the quilting group brought one day such a bag, we all fell in love with it and decided that we must absolutely have one similar. The same day I did the pattern and next day I started cutting and sewing with the greatest enthusiasm!
One week later, when I brought my bag, all the members of the group ordered one, and then a second one!
The success was such that the orders for this bag extended to other friends, relationships, groups...
As I love using scraps and mixing all sorts of fabrics, I really enjoyed creating each time a new bag.
You can see on the pictures two inside pockets and a matching needle book.
In the bag is my Log Cabin quilt.
What a great summer bag! There is never enough bags, is there? ;-)

I really love your bag, just my style. I enjoy seeing people that have made their own things. Like at quilt shows not too many people carry a bag they have made themselves. I take mine to the sewing seminars and expos! Love it.
