    I have been getting a lot of questions regarding the Bow Tucks bags that so many of us are making. So I decided to make a thread to answer some common questions.

    --The pattern is printed by "Quilts Illustrated" and is designed by Penny Sturges.

    --Bow Tucks come in 2 different sizes:
    1) Mini Bow Tucks is 9 X 11 X 4 inches.
    2) Bow Tucks Tote is 11 X 13 X 5 inches.
    I have made both and prefer the smaller version. Of course if you have a ton of stuff to carry around, you may prefer the larger bag. :D

    --You can find the pattern at your LQS (local quilt shop) or online. I purchased mine on eBay. They cost about $8. There are no free patterns for this bag.

    --knlsmith has graciously posted a "photo tutorial" to help you with the pattern. Thank you!!! The link can be found here: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-55016-1.htm

    --BEWARE!!! Bow Tucks are very easy to make and extremely addicting! :lol:
