Shopping Bags

I made some shopping bags for my friends as gifts. I used 5 fat quarters per bag. 2 fat quarters for the outside, 2 for the lining, and half of one for the handles. Here are some pictures of them.

Shopping bags from fat quarters

I've been making shopping bags with my fat quarters and giving them as gifts. I use 5 fat quarters in total: 2 for the outside, 2 for the lining, and part of one for the handles. I just sew the outside fat quarters together, make handles and attach them to the outside, sew the lining fat quarters together, then sew the outside to the inside by the top.

New projects

Here's a skirt that I made. It was done with the book Sew What! Skirts: 16 Simple Styles You Can Make with Fabulous Fabrics by Francesca DenHartog. Fabulous book if you want to sew skirts, and it helped me get over my fear of zippers.
