BORO BAG IS DONE.

My fat quarter was stitched and trimmed. The handles are a good match.

I have chosen this double side fabric for the top binding.

It was used in the bag and matches perfectly.

Well, my bag is all finished. The handles are on.

I LOVE IT.

I have already used it and I want to make more.

I started with a fat quarter size, added some wadding and a RED apple backing for the lining.

At least I was still keeping with JANUARYs theme colour.

Stitched all my BORO then just folded it in half and sewed the side seams.

Did my dog ear corners on the base, pleated and bound the top.

Added handles and here you have a beautiful bag.

Now I want to stitch some more BORO.

I'll decide on a starting size.  I might make a pouch with a plastic top.

I have seen lots of photos of this quilt.

****Sorry about the frosty photos****

My Hubby loved this pattern so it was bought. Maybe I might get to make it.

These are both great patterns to use up orphan blocks.

We had a lovely lunch their too.

Jen was also there and we had a good chat to her.

She liked how I had done the Gypsy Wife quilt with the groups Orphan Blocks.

I finally found the handles I needed/wanted to finish my BORO bag.

Don't they just go perfectly.

Now to get it sewn.
