From Tonga Treats, Coastal line. The batting is W&N, and I like the body it gives the bag but it was very bulky to work with in places. I will try Quilter's Dream Request next time.

This was my first chance to use my new Wonder Clips. I can't imagine doing this project without them.

Nicely done! I made one in all blues. I just saw one in browns through the tan color range that I really liked. Did you use the green clips or the red ones. Great job! Luann

Gorgeous bag. The button fits it perfectly.

Thanks, all! There are some lovely paler batiks in that TT collection, but I thought the darker ones would be more practical for an everyday purse.

Luann, I used the red clips and they were plenty strong enough.

The bag calls for two buttons, to cover the magnetic snaps that would otherwise show on the outside. On a hunch I checked the button rack at WalMart and was amazed to find just those two (one taped to its card), at $1.19 each, and they were a good brand. I had expected to have trouble finding complementary buttons at our one fabric store in town, and to have to pay a lot more for them. Sometimes we just get lucky.
