    When I started quilting, I had 4 Charm-packs - and not much else.
    So I paired it with Calico and made a JEWELBOX.
    It is still my favourite.

    Was the fabric "The big bang theory" or is that the name of the tote? I'd love to see it! (My husband loves that TV show) I love tote bags!
    here are the pictures of the BIG BAG Theory, tote, i believe the pattern was in an old McCalls magazine. i know i saved it.

    i made 2 of them..both using connecting thread charm packs..

    question, why are my links to my pictures not highlighted, so you can just click on them, instead of the copy and paste method?

    I've made 2 so far with charm packs. Just SIMPLE patterns.

    I used one to make a table topper from a Sewing With Nancy video on YouTube. I'm sorry I don't have the link, but do a search and I'm sure you'll find it. Talk about a quick and easy project! I machine quilted it and it is now on my daughter's kitchen table.

    I tried that but it was difficult for me. 5 inches is small. Is there a trick to it? I had puckers after the 3rd seam. Wouldn't lay flat.
