Love your totes. Is there a pattern?

Do you know what the pattern is called?
And where I might find it?

Please? and Thanks!

It might have been from Schnibbles Times Two by Carrie Nelson. The book features pairs of quilts from 5" (charm pack) and 10" (layer cake) squares. The layer cake patterns are quilt size, the charm pack ones are doll quilt/table topper/wall hanging size.


Jaos posted the link for the bag, on the previous page of this thread!

The only charm pack I've ever used was a set of batiks. I made a lil twister quilt with it. Love it!

I use them for purses, twisters, when making DP9's, rag quilts, lots of patterns are easily adapted to using them.
