    Here are a series of bags I made for myself for very specific purposes. The first one is to house a New iPad 2 that was a gift to myself for my 70th birthday. It has an inner diamond quilted black bag that acts as a slip cover, and the outer bag, diamond quilted again, but patterned, has 2 pockets to contain the cabling for the iPad.
    The second bag is really large and has the Tumbling Blocks pattern on a bag that was meant to hold a large 2' x
    2-1/2' drawing/sketch board, for heading out to the great outdoors and (hopefully) rendering some inspirational sketches.
    The tumbling block pattern is matched on the front flap, to the pattern underneath. A nice touch if I must say so myself.
    These bags represent the extreme of sized that I have done for special purpose carrying bags.

    Your bags are great! Love the way you did your ipad bag, with the pocket for the charger.
