Fun easy bags.

 I would recommend making them all. I learn so many things from small and large projects that I then can use for other projects, quilts and sewing clothing. Making a bag is also a great way to get used to different types of fabric. I have in the above pictures, linen, linen/cotton blends, quilting cotton, bias and twill tape, nylon & cotton webbing, vinyl, hardware, ribbons & ruffles. A grand assortment.

I am still trying to cut into my Children at Play fabric and I think I will save it for another quilt other than the Ferris Wheel. Only because the pieces for the quilt are small and the design and charm of the fabric might get lost in the cutting and sewing. 

Happy Sewing
