Very nice bag!! Love it!

Oh, I LOVE that! It'd be the PERFECT bag for taking along a knitting/crochet project!

There are also patterns from different sized bags, from Simplicity and McCall's.

This wasn't a pattern like you lay out. It's more like quilt cutting instructions - cut two 5 1/2" x 14" rectangles. That sort of thing. Got the same fabric - including the pansy (owner was there and knew where it was). Got a pattern that has 4 sizes - grapefruit, melon, volleyball, and basketball. I'll make the melon. (petite, standard, large, and jumbo were described like that.) got a busy day with family so can't get started yet, but can't wait!

Thanks for the links. Last night I looked at 100's of free patterns and none was quite right. It helped a lot that the shop had the petite and jumbo made up.

The bag is sooo pretty. I know whoever uses it will love it.

I'm going to follow the advice on here and give them both to her as a set. If she won't use the bigger bag she'll tell me and it will go to my church secret pal. Plenty of gift-giving opportunities!

It's a very pretty bag. Batiks are beautiful.
