I am in Canada and got them at Fabricland. Any drapery supply should have them as well as craft stores. Hope you all can find them.
Thank you, Bailey. I've just never seen them so large before. I'll be on the look out for them!

Love the bag. Great fabrics. I made one simular to that but it only has 4 grommets. The scary part was being that done with the purse then cutting holes in it. These bags are becoming quite popular and I've seen alot of quilt stores carrying the grommets now. :thumbup:

LOL I know, if you don't make the hole in the right place or the right size you have ruined the tote! It is scary - I kept telling myself it looked pretty good without the grommets - almost talked myself out of using them.

Thanks Bailey,
I live in the u.s. But, I am going out on a shopping trip to see if I can find some today. I really like the color of yours, so I am hoping I can find some like that. I think I will try mill end first. They have lots of odd things there.
Then I will go and find my black and whites for the swap. I have a cool michael miller fairy frost for my color. I am excited about it, I have never done a swap before.

Good luck finding the grommets. If you cannot find any let me know and I will pick some up and send to you. There is turquiose, lime green, hot pink, clear and I think a purple as well as silver, black and gold. Thought I would share with you all that the fabric is an outdoor fabric intended for patio cushions etc.... I can just wipe off the messy spills if there are any. How cool is that!
