I'm not against "not" making one, if something else will do the job. Will check out my suitcases and see if I have one to fill the bill.

Sometimes the obvious ... is not obvious! :)

I went to Hancock's and bought a ruler/mat holder for $20, I couldn't make one for that.

Not sure which pattern I used, but check out the measurements--someone somewhere posted one and used the cm as inches when she posted. I now have a HUGE bag, as I was just not thinking when I was sewing the darn thing! :>(
Georgia Bonesteel has a neat one in one of her books--think it might be "More Lap Quilts"

Thanks for the suggestions ... when I get to it, I'll be probably pulling ideas from different patterns and people!

I've been making a list this week of my Wish List of inclusions. Plus will no doubt come up with some additions when I do the OBW course next Friday!

Will be interesting to see what I come up with!

I love the fact that the ruler slides into the bottom of my bag......from the outside!
