Hi girls, I finished this patchwork bag this morning. I am so excited! Some of the fabric was fabric I bartered for.
It's not perfect, but I like it. Connie

Hi Connie, I finally got you box of fabric squares put together. The square start at 4 inches and go up. You can cut then down if needed. Just wanted you to have a huge selection to start with. Also included a really great book on making beautiful scrap quilts. It will go out on Monday. I just love your bag! Never worry about perfect, if we never did anything till it was perfect we'd never do anything!! Smiles, Melody June

You bag is beautiful! You did a wonderful job with it. I have always wanted to try bags and such like that, but I seem to be all thumbs when it comes to something so intricate! Thanks for sharing the pictures with us! hugs

Jessie! You could do that...I have the dolly you made for me and a bag like that is not harder, in fact would be easier to make. You could do it with a simple pattern...I am sure!

Hi Nancy, my sewing skills are beginner, as far as i'm concerned. I just pieced material together- I think you can do anything if you tried. Connie
