The Schlepping Bag


We had a request to give some information about this new pattern, the Schlepping Bag, a tote large enough to carry an 18 x 24" cutting mat and 24" ruler. As you can see, it's an attractive and sturdy carry-all and the instructions include a zippered pouch for additional tools, like a rotary cutter. Very handy.


Now, full disclosure, the pattern does call for 54" fabric which is harder to come by in a quilt shop but also mentions on the back of the pattern that this can be pieced. As a quilt shop, we of course suggest that you piece it!!!! or make a quilt block for the center or you can always use backing or upholstery fabric.
Keep your tools safe from damage while schlepping them to classes in this neat bag with a great name.
