Hi everyone, I am going to a quilt shop tomorrow that I hear is the best and already have called ahead to find out if they have a Bow Tuck pattern and they do not.

I have an online order placed but since I dont have it and want to get fabric tomorrw can someone tell me the yardage I will need.
I wont be going to the fabric shop again real soon since its 70 miles away.

I just got the pattern. Bow tucks tote is about 13" wide and 11" tall and 5" deep.
*Front & back top main section= 1/3 yd.
*front & back contrasting bottom piece, handles, side ties, button loop and front pocket lining = 2/3 yd.
*front pocket = one fat quarter
*lining for entire inside = 1/2 yd.
*cover for bottom insert- use scraps from above pieces.
* One 1" or larger button to match fabric design or a covered button.
*Pellon 987F fusible fleece- approx. 2 yd. It is the best!
*Matte board (from framing or craft supply store), cut to finished size.
*Thread to match.

Shoulder handle is a 5" by width of fabric piece if not using the contrasting bottom fabric.

Hope this helps.

You might want enough for 2 or 3. They are addicting

When I make these I get 2 yards of each fabric incase of screw ups. (And have a little for the scrap bin :thumbup: ) Good thing I do too. I made one and finished the whole thing then realizes I had done the inside pockets upside down. Now I always double check to see if the pockets are right. ;-)
