Product Description

This is a collection of 14 beautiful bag and purse designs to take you through the week, with a pair of projects for each day and a design for every occasion. Whether it's Wednesday's 'Typo Bag' - great for a work conference - or the 'Quilter's Backpack' and 'Ticket Purse' - perfect for Sunday afternoon trips - Susan Briscoe's new collection of practical designs is sure to inspire quilters of all abilities. Each of the daily duos make a complementary pair and require the same patchwork techniques, so quilters can try out the smaller item before embarking on the main bag. Easy-to-follow, step-by-step instructions ensure that the bags are as pleasurable to make as they are to use. Each pair is 'fat quarter friendly' and uses quick and simple methods popular with quilters, such as bias binding. All of the bags are accompanied by a variation that shows them off in a completely different colour scheme, effectively giving quilters 14 further inspirational designs.

Customer Reviews

Fabulous fat quarter Bags
A well laid out and informative book. Instructions are clear, with step by step pictures, which make them easy to follow. Ideas and tips with each set of instructions.
I would have liked to have seen the pictures of the other bags to be made on the cover, so when buying on line one had more idea of the content.
However I was not at all disappointed. An excellent book.

Can't wait to try
I've only just had this book and just reading and looking at the illustrations alone was worth every penny. There are plenty of pictures showing how to construct each project and tips to help you as well through the book. I can't wait to try out some of the projects, the first one I will try will be the one illustrated on the front cover.
