Someone had asked me abt the pattern for the bags, there are several ones out there but I would have made mine very much like that YouTube tutorial

The only thing I changed was that I left the opening on the side seam of the lining and not on the top, you can sew it shut by hand or very close to the edge by machine, that’s the way we have been thought in our quilters group and I made sure that I sewed over where the handles are 3 times to make it more sturdy, (I did the same with the seam in the gusset, sewn a couple of times)
I also made the handles a different way, cut the fabric abt 4-4,5” and made the seam 1/4” from the edge. I will see if I can post the pictures 😉 All the best for those who want to give it a try and looking forward to see all the lovely pictures 😁😁😁
