Machine quilting is one of my favorite activities because I love the way quilted lines texture the fabric. This quilted bag came in to being for a friend’s birthday gift. It is sturdy and brightly colored. The fabric is a combination of recent acquisitions and old fabrics waiting to be used.

The inside is not quilted. I used the School of Sewing‘s construction, with some personalized touches, such a size and fabrics.

What type of handmade gifts do you like to give?
