Grids & Grommets Bag
(Click on photo for a larger image)
Is this the cutest bag or what? I think we all love bags. Yesterday fellow DayStitchers (and they’re also friends) June, Betty, Margarget and I met at Pam’s house for a day of quilting. We each made one of these bags. I hope to get a picture of the five of us with our finished products. It was a super fun day, chatting, laughing, sewing, laughing, lunching, laughing – and actually getting something done. This bag (I did the “tote” size in the whole-cloth variation) is by Indygo Junction. Not a beginner pattern, for sure, but the end result is just smashing. This pattern utilizes drapery grommets to thread the handle through. Very clever, and a very nice bag. And isn’t quilting with friends just the best!

These are the 1-5/8″ (if I remember right) grommets. They were in the drapery department at the local JoAnn Etc. They had them in silver, black, white, gold, bronze, champagne … so many bags, so little time! ($9.99 for a package of 8, can use your 40% off coupon)
