BAG-like futte's-I just had to try one of these, like futte made. She gave very good info for us, and I was anxious to try. The applique is from KennysKreations, probally Oregon Patchworks. I really like how the flower stitches the edges before the filled satin stitch.I have included lots of views-hope you like-Thanks again Futte-Toogie ... ps, These bags would be a nice size, for quick trips with a baby, when you don't need to take a lot of stuff.Look, I have a jar of baby food,spoon to feed, 3 or 4 diapers,wipes,Moms lipstick, cell phone and FABRIC card, what else do you need?!! haha

109779Mine is almost done....My grandaughter is a 2012 graduate and she wants one with her very favoriet person on it. Will put in projects just as soon as I fig out how to put the darn strings in. I have to take the lining back out I forgot the pockets, (well think I won't decide to do it at midnight again). Guess the quilt I was making is set on the back burner for now...Love making these.

It is confusing , sometimes.You may have gotten it done,by now but I will try to tell you.Starting cord at one side casing opening, run completely through , all the way around, coming out where you started.You now have a cord that goes in the casing, all the way around, and both ends at same side . Now on opposite side casing, insert your cord and run all the way through back to where you started that end.Now you have those 2 ends on the same side .Catching all 4 ends , pull your bag closed. Sorry you forgot your pockets, I hate to have to rip. Let me see who her favorite person is!-Toogie

I thought of this and we always have a bag for Avery, only I may need to enlarge hers a little, since we have to bring so much. Do you make yours for younger age girls, or teenage,or us ? I guess it depends on the fabric choice. Thank you so much again for giving us this idea.-Toogie

I gave the measurements that I used in Community. I did like the emb stages, I wonder what program KK used to digitize.It sure stitches well.-T

Thank you very much.If I were to make one for myself, I would need a little larger.haha If anyone is interested in the measurements by inches,I can tell you the sizes that I used.Futte put hers in cm, and I converted to inches.

I would love to have the conversion. I think I would like to make my brother in law one...he is going for cancer treatments and thought some little things like tissues pencils...crossword puzzles would be perfect to give him.

109779I also wanted to show you how KK flower stitched out. I think you could stop in any of the add-on fabic stages and have a different look. I like this applique st b/4 the satin, too. Just wanted you to see-T ... ps.I started to skip the second fabric(green Dot) and go to the center and use the dot there.The 2nd step covered most of my print
