Neat bag! Thank you for the quilt shop web address. I have an adopted Eskimo daughter and I am raising her daughter, so the Eskimo patterns are something I watch for. By the way I like your first name! LOL

I love the fabric, great bag! I have been to Skagway once, took the White Pass train up the mountain. Awesome!

That is really cute - and I personally would have picked exactly the same fabrics even though I'm a crocheter and not a knitter. You just don't find crochet fabric too often..

Is it made like this one? It reminds me of this but using strips instead of squares...

I like yours better - made with strips. It's really sharp

Its a pretty easy technique once you look at it and one I may use in future bags just to help structure it.
