Lori brought both Jodi and I the pattern and supplies to make Snap Bags. I worked on mine while we were together Saturday night.
A great project to use up scraps.
These can be quite addictive to make!
Snap bags have measuring tape sections sewn into the top that allow the bag to open and close with a snap.

Lori had Mr. Honey cut up one of his old measuring tapes as a donation for our work night. We rounded the corners, then wrapped the edges with duct tape so they would not cut into the fabric. Great tips!
It was so wonderful having my dear friends Lori and Jodi here for 5 days of quilting fun. Thank you ladies, and I miss you already!
Tomorrow I will show you some of the things Jodi spoiled me with.
Apron in a Jar. What a wonderful idea. I'm looking forward to seeing your apron when it's done. Sounds like you all had a great time together. Loved the rest of the pictures too. Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI've given cookie-in-a-jar gifts before, but apron in a jar is just too cute and clever! I love the pom pom trim stuffed into the top!

Friends like Lori and Jodi are BLESSINGS!
ReplyDeleteThis is all SO clever! What a great friend Lori is! I especially like the idea of the measuring tape inside to work with a magnet. Excellent!
ReplyDeleteWhat great ideas! What a dream - 5 days with fellow quilters - who come bearing gifts, no less!! Word to the wise - I used the snap bag technique on a Tag-a-Long purse (Teri Atkinson design) - didn't SNAP as well - because the purse is too big! Hmmmm.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute idea....apron in a jar! Might have to use that one this Christmas season for my sewing friends! Sounds like you were busy busy busy this past week! Fun!

Sounds like you had so much fun. I bought that Snap Bag pattern at the Henderson Quilt show and they are a lot of fun to make. Can't wait to see your apron finished.
ReplyDeleteShe's something isn't she. I'm so glad she is our friend. She had great things to tell me about her time with you and Kent. I will see Lori on Wednesday and I can't wait.
ReplyDeleteHow clever! I love the look of that cook book too. Quilter's 'F' recopies must be easy and quick to make right?
