Great Pattern

This pattern is very well written and easy to follow - even if you are not a quilter (which I am not). The design options for the flap are endless. Love how this bag comes together.

Sew Cute

I first saw this pattern when it was featured in Quilt Connection magazine, love the design. I ordered the hardware from Emmaline Bags, my first purchase, made the bag look so profession and I have received so many compliments from sewers and non sewers. Pattern is well written but you must follow the steps so have it handy when building your bag. This bag will hold a ton of stuff so take care you don't pack it too heavy. Love the inner zipped pocket. Just love this bag.

Such a cool design!

I have made one spring fling and love the design of it. A great structured bag that shows off a quilted panel or in my case a cool feature fabric panel. I look forward to making another in the near future!
