Customer Reviews

Excellent Book

Excellent book - exactly what I was looking for. Also, received shipment promptly. Thank you.

GREAT PROJECTS. EASY AND INSPIRING.

This is a marvelous book. As I leafed through the pages, I wanted to make every bag project in the book. The projects are explained and illustrated in a very clear and easy manner. I've only been sewing for two years but I felt quite competent about completing any of the bags proposed in this book.

Really great for novices

I had trouble choosing which bag to make first. I am really keen to finish the first so that I can start on another. I am very much a beginner....but this is great.

Quilted Bags in a Weekend

Great bags, easy to make and wonderful design. Gets the creative juices flowing.
