This Charming Bag is Quick and Easy

It Makes a Lovely Gift, Too!
Whether this is your first bag project or you’ve made several, you’ll love how easy this one is to construct. You can have it finished in just a few hours.
Start with 5″ charm squares and a fat quarter for the outside of the bag. Add a coordinating lining and use fusible fleece or batting to give it body. Choose a 1″ webbing for easy straps.
The bag stands on its own, and interior pockets can be easily added. It can also be snapped closed at the top. Instructions are provided for making one bag or three at a time (5 can be made from one charm pack).
Once completed, the bag designed by Amanda Whisman from Be Mandy Things is 12″ w x 12.5″ h x 4″ 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!
