Thats a great price. They have the advantage of getting their fabric , thread, fleece and other supplies wholesale and believe me that is a real savings. I have to pay retail for every piece of fabric and supply I use.

I don't make these bags to get rich (becuase I surely am not getting rich) just to help cover the cost of this wonderful hobby of quilting. I mostly love providing fellow quilters who don't want to make them with a chance to have one.

You have the bags down to a science denise. Wonderful combinations on all three.

Thanks, glad you like them.

The bags I make are patterned off of the Bow Tuck Bag. It is a Quilts Illustrated pattern. I saw a completed bag at LQS and they didn't have the pattern. I wanted to make it for my daughter quickly for a b'day gift and couldn't wait the 4 to 6 weeks the shop quoted. I went home and started working on coming up with one. I made a bunch of practice ones out of muslin before I got it the way I wanted.

I suggest you buy that pattern. A friend of mine has it and it is a great easy to follow pattern. Once you make one you can't stop. LOL
