I think I'll call her "The Bag Lady."She loves bags, but she prefers not to make them herself.
She's busy making quilts...gorgeous quilts.
So, I guess it's okay.
She already had a handmade bag, but now she's got
a couple more.
Her birthday is tomorrow...but she got a couple of early gifts this year.
~~
This bag is BIG (and her gift from me). It's perfect for traveling...large enough to hold a knitting project, a large water bottle, a magazine or two, a book, camera, MP3 player...and I still don't think it would be full.
It has a large main compartment with two good size pockets,and there's another pocket on the outside...perfect for those magazines.
Her husband commissioned a bag...another from my favorite pattern.This is the first one made with the contrasting fabric on the outside band.
LOVE the fabric!
And just because we love her so much...there's a camera bag...
...a card holder...perfect for those coffee shop and quilt shop loyalty cards(I believe there may have been a gift card slipped inside)...
(This is a ten minute project...and so fun!)
...and a travel sewing kit to match the big bag.

Oh good! About time you stocked your mama up so she'd quit harassing you ;)
And she thanks you very much! Love you dearly - mom
Where can the second bag pattern be found for purchase?
Thank you.
The larger bag pattern was from a quilting magazine. The second one is Simplicity 2396.
Beautiful! We are enjoying special cousin time, but it's going by so fast & soon they'll be heading your way.
