I love the bow tuck bags. I've made a couple and am in the process of making another one. The two I have made, I gave a way.

Just curious, do you like it with or without the zipper? And,if you use it without a zipper, does the contents fall out a lot?

I use mine everyday. I use a snap instead of the button and haven't had anything fall out, even when it becomes airborn by DD's tossing in in the back seat or when I slam on the breaks and it falls off the seat. :-D

PLEASE share photos if you have them. My friend just made one with Connecting Threads clearance fabric. I'm going to make one for myself. She's gotten MANY compliments. It's such a practical purse!

I use mine every day. I put a strip of velcro for a closure.

I use mine all the time and have not had any problem with things falling out except when I do slam on the brakes and have not closed the top. The first one I made I used the button and loop and when I carry it, I am not good about looping the loop over the button. I think that is a PAIN! The next one I made, I put a magnetic closure on. It is absolutely the best way to close the bag!

I use mine all the time. I don't like the button, so next time I may try a zipper or the metal tape measure trick.
I am getting ready to modify the large one to a smaller one as I cannot afford the pattern. The metal tape measure is looking better and better. We shall see.
