Quilt tote. I’ve been meaning for a long time to make a carry bag. Toogie gave me the incentive to get it done…today! Here is my bag for carrying donor quilts to the cancer ctr. No more will I be stuffing them into plastic. My bag is a wee bit smaller because my quilts ar more like twin size, and I give 2 at a time. I embellished my bag with embroidery, and put 3 pockets inside. It is made of sturdy deco fabric and my handles can be over the shoulder. I’m proud of myself for getting it done! Hugs to Toogie for pushing me.

Thank you. The fabric was a bolt from an estate sale…too heavy for a quilt, so I don’t know what it was intended for. A good choice for bags tho.

Indeed! Where does she get the time and energy? The energy , or lack of, is what slows me down.

Oh, thank you. My quilts are “something to keep me busy” and I’m afraid my fabric stash will outlive me! My husband went thru the chemo , so I know how uncomfortable patients can get.
