For mother’s day I just had to make bags for my grandmothers. One of my grandmothers is very southern, so I tried to pick fabric that looked like her personality:
Here is the fabric I chose. I’m measuring out the fleece so I can quilt it.
I use a yard stick to measure out my quilting squares
I like to use my machine to quilt the fabric – not the old fashioned way.
This is the outline of the bag. The bottom will be square.
The painful process of turning the handles inside out -
it really is very painful on your fingers
And this is the finished tote. I think it captures my grandmother’s personality perfectly.
