    So nice and pretty. What do you use to make the bottom stand out so nice and circular?

    The bottom is squared off by sewing across the point and 1/2" polyester boning is put under the band on the top of the bag.

    Someone mentioned that they put a plastic cottage cheese carton inside theirs to make it easier to clean out and also put thread, small scissors, etc. into it and put the lid on it to take stuff to retreats or classes.

    I would love to but it isn't my pattern to give out. It came from probably the fall issue of Simple Quilts & Sewing.
