I have been making bags since I started quilting 6 years ago. I have made tote bags, grocery bags, travel bags, and purses. One of the bags that I really like is the Dandy Bag. I found it on the Internet in 2010 and have made somewhere between 6 and 10 of these bags. I have re sized them to make them larger and in many different colourways. This is a fun bag to make. This is the bag that Lynda and I took when we travelled to Europe a few years ago, and called it our day bag. We carried our water bottle, hat, umbrella, Kleenex, and anything else that wasn't valuable.
Because I have made so many bags the Guild asked me to put on a workshop and I chose the Dandy Bag from Dandelion Quilts. I added pockets and a zipper because that is what the participants asked for. We had a great time and as you can see everyone chose beautiful fabrics for their bag. Five of the 8 gals finished their bag on Saturday.
I forgot to ask if they minded having
their faces out on the Internet so I cropped
the picture to display the beautiful bags.
Peggy.
