Inspired by a bevy o bright and

lively abrics, designer Bonnie

Kozowski has made countless

versions o this go-everywherebag. Pockets on the inside are

great or holding your phone, keys,

and other necessities.

Although most o the bags

shown are made rom quilting

cottons, the bag also works well in

denim, tapestry, and upholstery-

weight abrics. (I you use a

heavyweight abric, you dont need

to use batting.)

Maerials 12 yard print A (bag) 34 yard print B (lining) 18x44"thin quilt batting or crat

feece

Fd b: 13x18"

Quantities are or 44/45"-wide,

100% cotton abrics.

Measurements include 14" seam

allowances. Sew with right sides

together unless otherwise stated.

Cu FabricsTo make the best use o your

abrics, cut pieces in the ollowing

order.

To make the Bag Pattern

template, use ull-size pattern

pieces on pages 5-10. Print one

each o patterns A-F. Cut out each

pattern piece. Reerring to the

diagram on page 11, match pattern

pieces at large dots and tape

pieces in place to make the Bag
