Sweetwater and Linen {Sew Together Bag}

After I made my first Sew Together Bag, I decided right then and there, I would make another one just for my Sewing Circle tote that matched.

I promised myself I would have one by Quiltcon 2016.  And I let that goal slip through my fingers.

This year, I was completely determined, no matter how late I was up.

 

 

Unlike other projects, I did start it two days instead of the night before I had to leave.

I made sure I enjoyed the process instead of just rushing to get a finished project.

My patience definitely paid off!! 

 I also was super happy I attempted one of my weaknesses....machine binding.

And I have to say, it isn't too shabby!!!

I think it looks smashing with my Sewing Circle tote!!

And it was completely functional for my classes at Quiltcon 2017 in Savannah this year!!

Sew Together Bag

 For some time, I saw a ton of traffic online about the Sew Together Bag and I just didn't get the hype.

Until I went to Quiltcon and saw them along with the Bionic Gear Bag in action. 

I loved how neat everyone had their stuff next to their sewing machines, all organized. 

I thought I would give the Sew Together Bag a try.

The pattern is from Sew Demented and can be purchased HERE.

I think I was even more eager to try it over the Bionic Gear Bag because Quilt Barn had a wonderful Sew-a-long to help guide you through the steps.

 I love it. 

It is my EPP dream! The zippered parts can hold all of my papers, paperclips and various notions.  

It's also wonderful for packing up things to sew on the go.

Definitely more are in my plans for the future.
