Camille's Bag

It is has been unseasonably cold here in Maine in January. Our local quilt group had a workshop for this bag and I chose bright Spring colors and lined it with green plaid.Can you tell what I am looking ahead for!!!! This is a ps013 Camille bag designed by Penny Sturges. I made some minor changes, enlarged the band at the top and also made the handles a little lighter by not using full wide of the fusible fleece. I also put more pockets inside with Velcro. It does not look big in this picture but it is about 14" wide x 14" tall. It is an easy bag to do.

Nice! I like the combo of floral and stripes too. Also a good tip on making longer pillowcases. We have a king-size bed and even with the larger pillows and pillows in shams, they need a bit more pillowcase to look good.

Cute! I think we are going to see a lot of these bags in our corner of the world, don't you? I agree, easy bag to make and very roomy.

Great bag, Margo, very cheery! I made my band at the top wider too, and I like that so much better than the original.
