While I was at the Vermont Quilt Festival, I found this really eye-popping raspberry silk fabric that I just had to have. I needed to make a bag for my sister that was young, fresh and hip – and she loves the color pink. Then I hit upon this great Timeless Treasures batik in shades of green (all in the same booth! What luck!) and had my epiphany. Take all this yummy fabric, pair it with beaded fringe and you have a really cool bag!
Here is a shot of the to-be-ironed-pile. Aren’t they pwetty?
All of the strips are cut…
Here are the strips sewn in the on point pattern.
I love this pattern, but cannot, due to copyright reasons, share it with anyone. If I had made it, I would gladly post it because you can do so much with it. But I think that any enterprising quilter can look at the photos (esp. the last one) and get a pretty good idea how I made it.









Hahahaha….hint, hint! Love it!
