Hello friends! I have to say that this collection was very inspiring to me. The fact that Tim created the little squares one at a time a few years back makes it even better. The box arrived after Christmas and I was opening the box it came to me that this fabric was very special.
Tim's fabric is produced by FreeSpirit Fabric and is available in stores or online now.
So with that said I made several projects. Let me show you!
The first 3 project are made from patterns by Kaitlyn Howell at Knot and Thread. Kaitlyn is a pattern designer, a longer quilter and she does fabulous work. If you're new to sewing bags I would choose the "All Things Tote" because there's no zippers involved. Kait has some videos that will help you get started, she also has all the supplies on her website and always ships right away which is a bonus.

Next up is another favorite patterns designer Anna Graham and her company is called Noodlehead. She also has videos to support her patterns. I really loved this bag with the mix of Denim and ColorBlock fabric and don't you like the drawstring at the top?
