Theses really are fun.

Very nice work on your bow tucks. I really like the blue one.

Very Nice! I really like how you have personalized each one. Great job!

Those are beautiful, I really love your embellishments.

Very nice :!: I really like the way you quilted them :-P :-P

Very pretty and creative! I like them.

Very very nice!

I've been admiring these.....where did you get the pattern?

My pattern is here and I am shopping for fabric this weekend! I bought my pattern on ebay.

My last email from Connecting Threads has kits available for $22.

Very nice!

Those are really cute.

I got my pattern on Ebay too. It is a great pattern.

You sure have an eye for color. They look great!!

Thank you all, They are really fun to do, and a nice size.

What wonderful bags. I love the colors and fabrics you used. Great job.

You inspire me. I have the pattern, just haven't tried it yet. Thank you for posting. And great work.

Thank you all. You are wonderful encouragers. I think I will make one for my Daughter-in-law for her Bday. Maybe in browns or purples.

Love your bags. I have had a bow tuck back in the making for tooooooooooooo long now. I better get it done, huh

Very pretty! I have that pattern and am dying to try it, but I have to finish these quilts first. :?

Hi this is Rosie from Ohio . I loved these purses that you made. I was wondering if you could give me the name of the pattern, or was this one of yours that you design? It seems to be a good sizes. They are very pretty. Thank you.Rosie

I'm with Rosie from Ohio. Where can I buy this pattern? What is it called? Thanks in advance!!

It is called Bow tucks you can find it your LQS or online. I have made two of the mini ones but an going to scale it down next time.

Hi Rosie,
This is the Bow Tuck Pattern. I bought it on Ebay, but I am sure it is available other places too. Lots of the wonderful ladies (gentlement? ) on this forum have made it. Each one looks so different from the other, I think that is what makes it so neat.

Wow, those are seriously cool. Is there a turorial on how to make these? I am being married this summer and they would make great "from Gramma" gifts for my grandaughters.

If you have made totes before it is basically the same. But if not, I found this tutorial this morning that looks pretty good with lots of good pictures. ( I need pictures!) http://justenoughtime.wordpress.com/...6/01/ladybugs/ When I made this bag, instead of the pockets all the way around the bottom, I put approximately 5" wide X 4" deep pockets on both sides. Then I divided one of the pockets into 2 smaller pockets which are just right for cell phone and keys. Hope this helps. It is a great purse. When I made mine, I couldn't find the batting they asked for around my basement so I substituted the batting they use for pot holders that has the foil in it. It worked great b/c it gave great body to the purse.

I don't think you can do anything wrong when making this purse, it is very versatile. Once I started one my imagination kind of took over, Now I want to try one in almost every fabric I see. hmmmm, maybe I will do that craft fair this fall......

They are both very pretty!!! :D:D:D
