Great duffle bag and I love the fabrics you used in your fabric baskets. Your friends will love their gifts.

Great projects!! I get your thriftiness. Growing up, we never got rid of anything with the buttons and zippers still on them. For the zippers, we measured them, the edges starched and ironed and stored flat waiting for the next project. Of course the clothes were generally thread bare by the time we got rid of them.

My guess is that she will love that bag and get lots of use out of it. Sleepovers, etc. Lovely extra gifts, too.

Very cute. Which pattern did you use for the duffel bag?

Linda, I didn't have a pattern, I searched through the internet, found several different ones and tried to figure out how to do it. It was a little bit of a problem with the circle, my calculations came to a 12" across which I cut out using a bucket , pinned it on and found it was too large so I measured and marked 1/2" right around, cut it and it fitted!!! Hallelujah!!! I only thought afterwards that I could have made the side pockets a little higher.....well you live and you learn, so it'll be better next time ohhh and the body is 35" x 20" in case you want to try. The straps are 120" long.
Have a lovely week-end!!!
