Well, had some of that nice modern zigzag fabric left over and promptly finished another bag, this time a size in between as the last bag got a bit very roomy. This time I enlarged the original pattern by just an inch. That just left enough for the handles and a little piece for some additional pockets inside.
Used this very nice french inspired fabric for the lining
Had only bitses of fusible fleece left , so I started to piece them together as I was too lazy to make a trip to the shop. I do this with wadding, so saw no reason why this should not work with fusible fleece.

| Piecing the fleece together worked absolutely fine |
Put a zipper pocket in and the magnetic closure like in the original bag and then included some pockets on the other side using the last of the zigzag fabric.
Here is the finished bag
Came out very cute and will be claimed by my other daughter in due course.
I think that might be it for a while in the bags department...will need to get going on my next pillow for the November FMQ Challenge at Quiltshopgal. Bought some nice fabric at the local quilt show for this...
Until next time

I really really like this one, so striking!
ReplyDeleteThat is a lovely bag! I began a small bag yesterday and hope to finish it today. It will be a gift for a friend overseas. I really enjoy making bags and I have developed a way to make a simple tote bag in any size I wish so I no longer use bag patterns although I have several.
