Have you seen the 'sew together' bag all over?

I have, and love them to death.  This is the 4th one I've made, and I don't think I'll ever get tired of them.  If you are interested in this pattern, it was created by Sew Demented and is for sale on her blog.


First off, I went through a bag of scraps that I bought from Christa of Christa Quilts and picked out some coordinating fabrics.  Then I sewed them together to make a piece of 'fabric' for the outside.


Then I started quilting it with matchstick quilting.  This was at the beginning, so the lines are further apart.


I love making my 'sew together' bags scrappy.



The zippers are my favorite part!

A little surprise inside of the pockets.



This one went right back to Christa!  Christa, I hope you enjoyed using this little 'sew together' bag at Market!

Finish It Up Friday at Crazy Mom Quilts!

    So pretty! I like the different lining for the zippered pockets. These bags must be so useful for anyone with lots of different things to keep separate from each other! xx

    What a pretty bag! I think I've only made three sew together bags so far. Love them. I wish I was better at the binding though.

    This is terrific!! I just finished my fourth bag, too, and I'm amazed at how quickly I can make one now, with hardly any looking at the tutorial online. I love your scrappy outside--I've never done one like that, always just using fabric. Definitely need to try one like that soon!
