Bag Give Away

While going through my storage room, I came across a box of scraps from my quilting days (well - I had plans of quilting). After looking through the box I decided to make a bag from all the red scraps. After I was 1/2 way through I noticed to small boo-boo's.


1) The small polka dot square was supposed to be in the middle.



2) the edge of the fabric is showing - you know that part that you should cut off or at least hem deep enough it doesn't show.




So here is the plan. I've started a thread on Etsy and the person to make the 1000 comment on that thread wins the bag.
Oh - measurements!
Bag: 13" x 12"
Strap: 3 feet end to end
It has one pocket inside.


Here is the thread to enter:

  5. I love this bag. Funny that the maker always concentrates on the imperfections and everyone else just notices the great colours/design/uniqueness etc!

  8. Adorable! I love thread killer giveaways...sadly the only threads I ever kill are the ones that I don't get anything from in the end other than the shame of knowing that I killed it!!
