Double Zip Gear Bag 2.0 with Tim Holtz Palette Fabric in Indigo

 Hello friends! I can hardly believe it's already August. Our project today is a great travel/gear case or for holding your tool for crafting or sewing. And let's talk about this gorgeous floral! The Tim Holtz Palette in Indigo has 10 beautiful prints from light to dark and has Typography, Florals, Tickets, Maps and more. I was really drawn to the Palette Wallpaper (floral) for the outside, Palette Tapestry for the lining and the deep dark Palette Vintage for accents. I love how the fabric shows off the Double Zip Gear Bag 2.0 Patterns by Annie. the pattern comes in 3 sizes and I've used the medium for our project today. 

Don't you love this Palette Indigo Wallpaper (floral). GORGEOUS! 
I love all the zipper pocket this bag has to offer. 
So helpful to stay organized. 

It's also a great size at 5"H x 10 1/2"W x 7"D

Here are some highlights for sewing the bag.
Gather your supplies and cut all the pieces out. I love that Patterns by Annie has little labels for all the pieces. So helpful to keep things straight. 

         Layer your pieces for quilting.         Quilt as desired. I used a 1 1/4" grid. 

Cut the pieces from the quilted pieces.

Create the pockets by sewing the binding on and adding the zippers. 

Sew mess pockets to the inside of the main piece.

Sew zipper pockets to the exterior of the bag. 

Create the center flap by adding the zippers and lining. 
Round corners of the end pieces and add Velcro and strap to end. 

Sew the center flap to the main body oof the bad. 

Add the binding to the ends turn rightsize out and you're all done. 


The outside features a zipper pocket on each side. 
Double zipper in the middle for easy access. 

The inside has mess pocket on each side for holding smaller items. 

Thanks so much for stopping by.
Happy Sewing!
