Thanks...I am really trying to use up fabrics I no longer want to use in quilts and this is ideal way to do that ..and make Christmas gifts early!

I am making them for gifts...will be nice to have so many things made up so early and also to use up so many fabrics I don't want anymore for quilts..

What pattern did you use for this bag? Or do you have a tutorial for it?

I used the same pattern as the SNAP BAG that I made so many of from the free tutorial on line and just made them larger..the sizes vary a little because it depends on the size of the piece of fabric I had to use but most are about 13 x 15" or so
