Quiltingboard Forums - Pieced and quilted bag

[h=1]Good evening Quilters! When I went to my QOV meeting a couple ladies had these very large bags they had made. Naturally, me being curious, I had to figure out how to make one. lol And of course I had to have one too, to bring all my 'supplies' back and forth.[/h]One of the ladies told me the pattern came with a certain iron on interfacing with grids marked for your 2 1/2 inch sqs, so you HAD to buy the pattern. (She doesn't know us does she, ha ha )
Well, I can mark a grid on interfacing and I googled Mondo Bag to see how to put it together, on You Tube. I also had this pack of charm sqs just waiting for a project, so I cut them into 2 1/2 inch sqs and added a few from yardage, so here is my result.
I quilted my lining using my walking foot. I used everything from my stash, even piecing batting for my lining, as I didn't have fusible fleece. The charm pack was a gift from someone who went on the MSQC bus trip with me.(wasn't that nice?) The lining was fabric that was given some time ago, maybe from my aunt ,when she could no longer quilt. The very bottom ends up being about 11 inches sq so it's humongous! I could probably get my little machine in it! Anyway, I hope you like it and I didn't forget my name! Can you find it?- Well, if you like it and need one, go for it! I know you can do it too!
