Description
Skill Level: Intermediate
Store all your sewing essentials in this fun project bag! This handy zippered bag has a sturdy quilted base and vinyl window for easy visibility of all of your contents. This bag is super versatile - the smaller size is great as a pencil or tool case, while the large sizes are great for storing paperwork, fabric scraps, sewing tools and more. The pattern offers four views, and students are permitted to make any size they'd prefer. Please note, in class we will only be showing how to make the bags with a contrasting fabric bottom border, as opposed to the patchwork bottom border.
During this 4-hour class, students will practice basic quilting, binding, working with vinyl, sewing with zippers, and will learn how to use a quilt guide bar. This class is suitable for intermediate students who have prior bag making experience.
