Mama's Got A Brand New Bag!

Bright and early Friday morning I will be getting on a bus headed south to the AQS Quilt Show in Lancaster, Pennsylvania! Naturally, I couldn't go without a new bag to hold my camera and most importantly my cash and credit cards! With a few selvages, a zipper and a little imagination, I came up with this simple shoulder bag which is just the right size to carry the few things that I will need while at the show.

So cute. I've seen two people now that said they will have selvage bags at the quilt show. I'm on the lookout for them :)

Perfect! I 'm sure you'll get lots of comments wearing this cute bag at the quilt show. Have fun!!

Your bag is perfect to taking along to the quilt show... Not too big, but not too small. Great job!

Hey Susan,

I just found your blog and I LOVE it, this little bag is adorable- what a great idea!

I work for AQS and I'm sure you know already, but in case you don't I wanted to let you know that as an AQS member you receive $13 off a day at each AQS show you attend. The membership is only $25 so depending on the amount of shows it will basically pay for itself. You receive a number of other benefits also.

We also have several blogs, one of which is:

Have a great day and have fun in Lancaster!

Great bag, Susan! Bring it in to the shop sometime, so I can get a better look at it! Wish I was going to the show too, but I'll be in Florida instead. Sunshine is right up there with quilting, so I'm sure we'll both have a great time.
