Nothing Fancy School Tote

Nothing Fancy School Tote

This bag felt huge as I was making it. I wanted something that would be large enough for a college bound gal to have a place for her books and everything else she would need without going back to her car.

I wasn't sure how to add pockets to the inside for easy access for a phone, pens/pencils and keys and that is the only thing she said it was missing.

I don't know the dimensions and I didn't have a pattern, I just winged it from some numbers my sister gave me over the phone.

The next bag will defiantly get pockets, lots of pockets.

Granny square quilt

This top is finished. I would have had it quilted by now except I'm not sure which is the best way to go about it on the long arm. i want something that will blend in and not detract from the blocks.
any suggestions would be great.

also an update on finished projects for this year is 73. I had forgotten about the pincushions and pillowcases!!
