Fast and Easy...
http://quiltinglibrary.blogspot.com/...o-made_05.html I used walker bag # 5 for my original pattern. You will note the pattern calls for " sturdy fabric" . I had a light wt cotton blend fabric. So I twice as many of all pattern pieces. For the 13x8 pockets, I sandwiched some light wt stabilizer between layers of the pocket fabric and lightly quilted it. I did this for both pockets. I added a band of color to the top edges, as binding. ( no need to bind sides or bottom) The main body piece , ( 24 x 13) I also cut 2 Once I had all my pieces quilted, and embellished ( in my case, I used my emb machine) I then sandwiched everything.I'll list as I laid the layers down> 1 light wt stabiler if desired ( 24x 13) 1 main body ( 24x13) place pockets at each end with tops facing towards center 1 main body ( 24x13) then I stitch all the way around , leaving a 4 inch or so area open, between the pockets was easist. Turn right side out, taking care to turn both pockets to the same side ( easily fixed if u get one on one side and one on the other.. just flip it to the other side) I chose to double stitch on of the pockets down the middle to form 2 small pockets the other pocket I left open, enabling a newspaper or magazine to carried. Don't forget to top stitch the area between the pockets , catching the open seam area to completely close ur seams. Again , the pattern called for velcro, I do not feel velcro holds up well in the long run so I used heavy no sew snaps. One on each side about the pocket....as picktured. tada!!!!! u have a walker bag! hope this is clearer than mud!! |

Thanks for the timely post of the walker bag tutorial. I will be having spinal surgery in the very near future and I am going to construct one of these for my walker. I would like to heal to the point that i can make some of these for others. Please remember me in your prayers. I am concerned about the surgery. Surgery last year was failed....going to try again.
