    I posted a picture of my most recent bag under this topic: "What are your favorite patterns to make purses or totes?" Just finished it this morning! It's not a Bow Tuck, but I like the pattern and it's free and easy. I really enjoy seeing and hearing about projects that everyone has done. Thanks for the encouragement.

    Hi. Have made the bag you are in question of. I love it. Actually our quilt guild, Coat of Many Colors, did a class. Mine is of chickens. The only advice I have is to label each piece you cut out. That would make it easier for you. I did get confused and had to rip out some. Good luck. You will enjoy the bag.

    A word to the wise, the front is quilted to the batting and the back is quilted to another piece of batting.....ask me how I know...... Just started on mine and had some difficulty. But I will try to rescue it.

    Okay, I couldn't hold out any longer, I am now a "Lady In Waiting" for the two Boe Tuck Purse patterns I ordered last night. You wonderful sisters have made them sound so addictive, and I am looking for a new fix, I only have 5 WIP's right now.

    I would think if you just made the pieces a few inches larger it would be easy to enlarge, I have made it smaller.

    Put the pocket on the upper front before you attach the upper front to lower front. It makes a much neater application.
