Duffle Bag

Good Morning,
For some time now, I have wanted a new duffel bag because my old one has become worn and is ready for the garbage. I searched the Internet and I came across some patterns.  Most of the patterns were hard to understand and didn't have any pictures to help guide you.  Finally, I gave up the Internet search for free patterns.  I then came across a google entry for simplicity pattern 2600.  I searched around the Internet and the price was about $12.00 for the pattern, plus shipping/handling.  This was way too much.  So I tried my luck at the local Hancock Fabric Store.  I found this very pattern for $1.00! Yes, I couldn't believe it either.  So I now have the perfect pattern for a duffel bag.  I've already made one and I'm about to start on my second one.  Anyone looking for a duffel bag pattern, this one will truly satisfy.

New Blogger

Hey guys and gals,

I am a new blogger. I just created this blog to discuss all things quilting.  Anything from sewing blocks, using the right thread, and binding.  You are also encouraged to discuss life that surrounds your quilts. I am fairly new to quilting and I am by no means an expert.  So I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
