another bag

[ATTACH=CONFIG]484038[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]484039[/ATTACH]I went to Joanns and they no longer sell bag handles at the store in my store. I went to a thrift shop and bought a bag for 2.99 and took off the handles. Love the handles!! Very easy to sew them on.

Clever you....the bag at 2.99 was probably a better buy than the ones they would have had at JoAnn's. Very nice bag!

Love the shape and the quilting. Funny, before I read your explanation I was going to ask you where you got the great handles. I agree you probably paid less than you would at JA.
