I love your bags! I know what you mean about their being addictive. I have made over 50 of the charm square bags for my daughters, granddaughters, granddaughters' teachers, and foster children. I kept only one bag for myself. Now I want to make more bags as I'd like several bags for myself. Thanks for the pictures of your bags. They are so pretty!

Very nice. I think I recognize some of that fabric.

I love these, esp the pastel one! I just got the Tumbler bag pattern and all the fabric to make my DD and DDIL one for Christmas. I'm wondering if anyone has made both and what you think about using batting vs the interfacing (as on the Tumbler bag)? I think I'd like one with a zipper closing and found a video on YouTube on how to put a zipper in any bag:

She has several videos about making bags that look helpful. I'm going to have to make this one too!

You mean you added another compartment with a zipper? Please tell more about this!

Prefer the 2nd color bag, but both beautiful and handy...

Funny how the both look so different because of the fabric you used. I actually skipped this video because I didn't think I would like one of those bags...boy was I wrong! I love both of yours!
