WHAT NOT BAG

This makes a great bag for those retreats or classes you may attend, or those fabric shopping trips. It has an outside pocket to place any magazines, flyers, patterns, shopping lists, etc., another outside pocket to keep your cell phone handy, and an inside zippered pocket to hold all those small items. The shoulder strap is comfortable and keeps those hands free. You can make it in a “funky” style as I did or all in one fabric – your choice as you are the designer! Come and enjoy making this unique, versatile bag you will use often.
