Quilted Bag
With this online bonus, we expand our series of
quick and fun bags to a baker's dozen! This little zippered number,
featuring a favorite outline quilting motif, is perfect for toting
floss, toilietries or jewelry.
You'll find the basic bag pattern and general
instructions in CME's November/December
2006 issue (click here
for back issue ordering information).

| Instructions
Showcase outline quilting motifs on the side or all over. Back the
bag body with lightweight batting using temporary spray adhesive
to hold the layers together. Or, opt for fusible batting and add
the bag lining as the backing to the "quilt sandwich."
No stabilizer is needed when batting is used. The underside of the
embroidery will show inside the bag, so use a coordinating thread
color in the bobbin.
Hoop and embroider the quilt motif and trim the threads. Construct
the bag according to the “General instructions,” finishing
the seams with serging or zigzagging. For a more elegant finish,
bind the seams.
