Make a bag using fabric that you have created in other classes or in your studio or a commercial fabric you like. You will learn how to quilt the exterior, put in a zipper with confidence and add a framework to give the opening of the bag extra support. I will give you quilting tips for the Flex foam and Shape Flex. You will create and add handles and a give your bag a flat bottom.
