My Sewing bag.

Every week I go to quilting classes and I thought it was time I got a homemade bag for it. This is an oversized bag with 4 pockets on the outside and 2 on the inside. The third picture is a view of the inside of the bag. I picked up the colours from the embroidery and made the inside from strips, the used the borders on my machine to stitch the decorations on it and the I put biased binding over the seams between the different colours. The inside of the pockets on the outside of the bag are made the same way only with narrower strips and biased binding. The embroidery patterns are from embroidery library.
I can fit a decent size quilt in the bag! so plenty of space.

Lots of work here with all of the decorative stitching on the strips. You should be very proud of your one of a kind bag but the strips should be on the outside. It is a shame to hide them inside the bag when they are so lovely.

What great practice of stitches from your machine and completing a whole bag. You've matched everything so well.
