I have been working on this quilt for a couple of weeks but things kept getting in the way of my quilting time so last night I couldn't sleep so i got up a 3AM and finished the quilt it is just a cot size, 4 1/2 inch squares, I am begining to hate this size square on rag quilts but it all came in small squares that I had to spend time re cutting as nothing was the same size or shape.
but the up side is it only cost about $4.00 to make,
the bag is some curtains I picked up for $7.00 and i will get 8 bags out of it, I just added some yellow strips to give it a lift, it is lined with the backing fabric from the curtains,
I recon that has to be another bargain,
hope you like my budget busters
battery was flat on camera so couldn't use the flash, colours are brighter and whiter than this

made from fleece and polar fleece

Can never have to many bags or quilts and we can never find to many BARGAINS-- especially when make up such wonderful things.

Those are both so cute and so cost efficient. Great job. Thanks for sharing.

Yes, I love the kitty bag, too, as well as the bright rag quilt! It's even better at those prices!
