    I made dresses for Haiti but have not heard about making bags. Made 24 dresses to move fabric out of my stash. The bags are interesting and would be a good go along with dresses.

    Who uses the bags and what size are they. Are they padded or just lined.
    I will turn my dresses in next month and if the bags might work for Haiti, can quick get some made.
    Thank you for sharing your wonderful bags.

    The bags are open on top, no zipper, they have a pocket inside just like the one on the front. They have a layer of fuseable fleece ironed to out side which I quilt with a simple cross hatch. And they are lined. I think I have made about 700 dresses for them. Some made from yardage others made from pillow cases. These in the picture are baby size but I make up to large size ones too. I do not expect the bags will go with the dresses but wil probably be used in one of their fund raising events. Thanks for all your kind comments and looking.

    rainbowzebra, thank you for the information on the bags and the little dresses are adorable. I made mine in the pillowcase style. Guess I should ask the gal if they could use bags before making them.
    You have been doing them for some time and a wonderful gift to Africa girls.
    Thank you for the photo of the dresses.
