Make a Special Bag from a Favorite Fabric Collection

Quilting Digest | July 31, 2024 | Quilted Bags

There’s a Matching Pouch Too!

This charming bag is a beautiful canvas for your favorite fabric collection. It’s lovely in any color combination and extra fun if you feature a fussy cut motif on the outside pockets.

The bag is fully lined and traditionally pieced with two pockets outside and two large pockets inside. Fusible fleece gives it form and structure.

Start with 2 1/2″ mini charms, 5″ charm squares, or cut squares from larger pieces. Leftover 5″ squares or a fat quarter are used for the pockets.

The completed bag, designed by Belinda Karls-Nace from Blue Ribbon Designs, is 12.5” W x 12” H x 3″ D (plus handles – handle drop is 5.5″).

The designer also provides a pattern for a patchwork pouch. It offers another opportunity to showcase a favorite fabric collection, whether or not you pair it with the bag.

Once completed, the pouch is 9″ W x 8″ H x 2″ D.

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest has featured many patterns from vendors participating in the Craftsy Marketplace, most of which have been deleted by Craftsy. It's going to take awhile for us to hunt down new sources for those patterns. In the meantime there are many links to patterns on our site that no longer work. We apologize if this article contains one or more of those links and appreciate your patience while we straighten things out. Thank you!

PLEASE NOTE: Quilting Digest does not sell or otherwise provide patterns directly. We showcase patterns and projects from various vendors, bloggers and other sources. Please make a note of where you access a pattern (the link in the yellow box toward the end of each Quilting Digest article). That way you can contact Support for that source if you have downloading problems or other issues. Thank you!
