What's on the cutting table today..



I have been thinking about a bag to make and I made this one for my mother last x-mas so I decided to make me one and to see how long it would actually take me for a possible class. I just got started picking out the fat quarters. I just couldn't possibly go to the quilt shop again and buy more fabric so I made myself use what I had on hand. I will let you know how that turns out. Right now I am short on the 1 and half yards I am supposed to have for the lining...darn it! Piecing here I come! I added about 8" to the center of a 1 yard piece and I am still short...shoot! More piecing here I come. Still short by another 7 inches or so, lord will this lining ever get to see the inside of this bag?

If you have ever seen this bag, "The Big Big Bag" pattern, it is wonderfully(is that a word? It is I did spell check!) huge and large enough to put a queen size quilt inside to bring with you to stitch-in or where ever. I love it, as soon as I get it completed that is..LOL

I am out to find another seven inches to my lining. I will have the finished bag picture in another day or so.

Love ya, happy crafting! T
