My First Sew Together Bag


 This is the front of my first Sew Together Bag.  I had lots of orphan 'crazy quilt' (machine embroidery quilted)blocks leftover from a past project.  Thought they would make a pretty bag. 

 The crazy quilt blocks were made with flannel so I used flannel for the rest of the bag.
 I wanted to make a storage area for my little stork scissors...so I just left an area open when I attached the pin cushion.  Wish I had purple elastic!
 This bag was NOT easy...especially since I was using Heat and Bond instead of fusible interfacing...(didn't have any)...the Heat and Bond is almost impossible to sew on...it's sticky...had to constantly wipe down needle with alcohol wipe! 

Now I can start some 'hexies'...been so interested in them for awhile now.
