I made one bow tucks bag, showed it to my sister, who wanted one (this one is hers but it has been modified bigger than the pattern) and then she spread the word that I was making these cute bags and now everybody wants one, sight unseen, price unknown. My sister in law what's seven! My cousin was taking orders from her co-workers! Hey, wait a minute.... this was supposed to be fun... not stressful!!

Wow, you are going to be busy. They are so cute everyone wants one. You didn't know you would be going in business when you made that one.

Congrats...looks like ya started a little business!

Just adorable! Best wishes for your new venture!

Wow!!! Love that fabric :D:D:D

well no wonder everybody wants one, they are beautiful

I have that pattern, I haven't started it yet. The pattern called for fusible fleece, all they had was the heavy duty, I wondered if this would work just as good?

I love the colors in this purse.

That is so so cute! Love the colors! Have fun with your new business :) Hehehe

OMG!! :D Are you going to be busy or what? :D I love the fabric color's that you used in making this one!! It's really very pretty. I will anxious to know how many of these you end up making. Do keep us posted, okay?
:D :D :D :D

I think it be fine as long as it can still bend and move easily. Also, you can use regular cotton batting (low loft) just baste around the edges of the parts before you put them together.

Beautiful bag. All you ladies keep making these adorable bags and I can't seem to get time in spite of everthing I do. I am too cheap to pay someone to make me one...guess that is not true...just have other priorites right now.

One of these days I will post my own here. All these gorgeous fabric combinations are almost overwhelming! Don't know how I could decide on the fabrics. They are all so beautiful.

beautiful, thanks again for sharing, I want one also, add me to the list along with lots of others from the quilting board site

That's a really cool bag. I can completely understand the interest :) Looks like you'll be in business in no time at all :)

Wow I am not surprised, your bag is fabulous, I am thinking I must try and make one or two or three, for my self!

Love the bag, great colors, my favorite green. Good luck making all those bags!

Love what you chose for the bag..so pretty. I am trying to figure out how to add a zipper to bow tucks..any one have suggestions?

I'd love to hear a solution to this too...zippers scare me! LOL But my daughter-in-law would love one w/a zipper.

To make quicker work of it, do what you can assembly line style. That's what I did. I did all the cutting, then all the fusing, then whatever quilting with the same color thread I could, assembled all the handles and loops. Then I went back and assembled the body of the bags. It seemed to go quicker that way. I sold a few of the Mini Bow Tucks bags for $40 each. I think I could have gotten more though. Good luck!

love the colors... and I totally agree with the assembly line idea - that is exactly what I do - and it works!!! It does go much quicker

Cute :!:

Thanks y'all! I'm not sure I want a second job making totebags, but I'll make a few for sure.

Gorgeous fabrics & beautiful bag!! Have fun making money on your new job,lol!!!
