Did you use any lining or batting?

With you having such a supply .... thought maybe you would like to some close-up pictures the other bags.

Thank you for the closeups. Very inspiring. Think I'll dig my samples out and prove to my husband that there was a good reason to collect them.

"Where there is will, there is a way" in putting together and making use of all kinds of scraps, leftovers, etc.

I remember seeing those...awesome...do you have any left?

Your bags are very good looking also ..... I am the kind of person who "LOVES' to create, mixing colors and textures .... and love how the finished project comes out. It is boring for me to sit down and make 25-50 of the same thing .... like it better to make each one different.
