New prototype bag…

Posted on December 9, 2012 by muniqueblog

I’ve had an image in my head using traditional quilt patterns to create a corded bag, so I finally had time to bring the idea to reality. I used a variety of black fabrics and even some ribbon. Here’s the result… it’s one I will carry. It was quick and fun to make using a sloppy log cabin design. Next, I want to design one using wool fabric and tightening the design a bit. But first, some charity quilts for the Linus project. I have three started … so Off the Wall Friday will get a glimpse of those in my next post.

I don’t understand. if you’re using a log-cabin design, where does the cording come in? is it a liner?

and btw – Love.It. 🙂

  The cording is in between the front piece and the lining piece. �I don’t like how that turned out, so I want to try another one and tighten it up a bit so the cording gives more of a roundness to each piece. �Work to do. � Mary Ritter� https://muniqueblog.wordpress.com
