Default 1-April-2014 Project of the Month Photos.

the original[ATTACH=CONFIG]469629[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]469630[/ATTACH] this one followed the directions exactly. It was my first one and I use it all of the time for my sewing stuff.
and then i started playing
[ATTACH=CONFIG]469631[/ATTACH]this one is the same lenth but is deeper for my daughter's art supplies.[ATTACH=CONFIG]469626[/ATTACH] I made this one, to see if I could do it more than one color, i used the same length and then sewed the pieces together and cut the inside pieces to match.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]469627[/ATTACH] applique, its a deeper bag for pencils and school supplies and I put his name on it before i put it together.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]469628[/ATTACH] and my newest creation . this bag is two colors and fully quilted. it also has a strip on the inside [ATTACH=CONFIG]469632[/ATTACH] sewn to the lining fabric. to put my pins through so they stop jamming me in the hands. I have made a couple more, one for my daughter that is all yellows, two bigger ones that were in badger fabrics, that I gave away as cosmetic bags. and i had one failure where I tried to add a 2nd zipper and pocket to the front, but i scavenged it for the zippers.... So let's see what you have made.

I made this one yesterday... i've been telling my bee friends that i need to make a bag for my quilting supplies. i wanted the base to be wider, so i added a gusset... and i just couldn't make it without quilting. i also added an inside pocket fully closed with velcro in case i need to carry buttons, money, or other small items. i also wanted my name somewhere in case it got left behind... so i added one of those woven name labels as the pull tab to help open the velcro pocket. i cut the gusset 2" at the bottom and 1/2" at the top... if i make another, i'd cut the base wider so it will sit on its own better.
