Quilting and Stuff by Knitnoid

Design Wall Monday

On this Design Wall Monday I first have a finish.  Last week I made the Midi Bag. This past weekend I made the larger Mondo Bag.   I think this will make a great reusable shopping bag.

Here are the two of them together for size comparison.

After the bag was finished, I pulled out my Christmas Star Swap blocks from April 2019.  I made the 6 alternate squares, now I need to do the setting triangles.

 

Quiltsmart Midi Bag

I’ve finished my Quiltsmart Midi Bag. I bought the jelly roll — Ladies’ Legacy by Barbara Brackman for Moda — last summer.  For that matter the pattern and lining fabric was also bought on that trip. I pulled it out a couple of weekends ago and promptly cut the through one of the handle pieces when separating the 2 pieces of interfacing.   When it came time to work on the handles, I quit for the day.

Last weekend I started working on the bag again.  But apparently I was distracted.   I made two beautiful straps.

It wasn’t until I attached them to the bag that I realized I made a mistake.    So I regrouped and pulled 4 strips to make the handles.

It has a pocket!
