Great bag.

I really love how easy this pattern is, the quilting takes the most time but it is worth it. This one I did not do as much quilting on and feel that the bag is not as stiff as it could be so the next one I will break down and quilt. My first two are quilted a good amount and it gives the purse some substance to it.

I have made a few changes and find that following the directions is the only way to go! I did however use a 2 1/2 inch strip of fusible fleece for the handles and not the full 5 inch. I fold my fabric in half for the handle and then open it up and fold the side in half to the center fold and then place my fleece in there. Then I fold the whole thing in half again and stitch down both sides and then the center. It is a very sturdy handle. Any more than that and it would be too much for my machine to handle.

cute

I am just in the process of making this for the first time. I just did the handles, and I can see that your way seems a lot easier. I did it the way the directions said---and used my walking foot and it worked fine--but seems rather *puffy* for a handle.

Well, I am off to do some more---hope to get it finished today.
If I do, I will post a picture. Mine won't be as co-ordinated as yours as I am just using what I have in my stash.

You guys are killing me with the Bow Tucks bags! They all look so fantastic!!

Awesome job on the bag! It's just gorgeous:)

Its really a pretty bag!

Hey that works, I love the striped lining fabric that is cute.

RJ I see no mistakes. It looks fantastic. I am so jealous of all your Bow Tuck bags. I really really really need to go buy that pattern!! I'm going to call the local stores and see how much they charge for it and compare to Ebay & online. I like to support local when I can but I definitely will look around ;)

Just wonderful!
