I made another walker bag for my Mom. It fits over the front crossbar of her walker and snaps on securely. It has pockets so she can carry things she needs.

Did you use a pattern? If so where did you buy it? I would like to make some for a nursing home my mother was at.

No, there isn't a pattern. I just measured my Mom's walker across the top bar, and measured down for the length I wanted it to be.
There are so many styles of walkers so you really do need to measure.
Basically, I make an oversized placemat, apply two pockets so one faces my Mom and the other one faces outward. I also attach snaps. It really is very easy to make.
