I'm so fascinated by the fabric on the bag. Is it two different fabrics? (same pattern different backgrounds) Looks like a batik maybe the way batiks change colors? It's really pretty fabric and a well made bag. Lots of great goodies too.

I'm a ruler junkie too, so any rulers that make cutting easier, or have neat techniques, I'm usually all over those at quilt shows. Have fun, I love big quilt shows, there are always new ideas and patterns to be had!
Thanks MizMelly. I have the blue frixion pens as they are the only ones we can get here so I'll put them on my list to see if I can get any other colours.

Mary, the fabric used for the bag is a larger scale print with a background that varies...so it is all the same fabric!

And Lynnie thought it would be Friday, guess what? It is here now! So adorable. Now I can just adore cupcakes instead of eat them. Thank you so much for the row by row patterns. I so needed them to add to my 50 state quilt I am working on.

Here's two bags I made for some male friends last year. I apparently overcompensated because I had extras! As you can see, I tried to use more "manly" types of fabrics. These two were made from a line of fabric with Roman motifs. I really liked how they turned out!

Lynnie such pretty fabric. Usually the bags will pop back out into shape. Good job. Melonie, Nice men's fabrics. Look very nice too. Thanks for the pictures ladies.

MizMelly those are GREAT! I really like the "shaving kit" looking handle. I think we used the same pattern, all but the big handle. Was that your idea or part of the pattern? Either way it's great.
