Schlep Bag – Twist Bag – Easy Squares Tote – Such a Simple Bag – whatever you want to call it, this is my go to pattern anytime I need to make a quick and stylish bag. The basic squares bag is perfect as a tote bag. Smaller squares will make a great purse, a bag to carry toys, a trick-or-treat bag, school bag, lunch bag or you can use it inside your larger tote to carry a snack or keep a smaller project organized inside. The possibilties are just endless! They say a pictures is worth a thousand words so on Wednesday at 10:30 am EST I’ll post step by step instructions (along with pictures) showing how to make the basic squares bag.  I have my fabrics ready to go. Gather yours together and stop back Wednesday morning. |
I am looking forward to the pictures! I have made this bag a couple of times but I do like it! Thanks for your instructions.
Thanks for doing this – I’ve been wanting to make this bag for such a long time!
Two corrections to the PDF I printed just yesterday. You need 1/2 yard for the handles and triangles, not 1/4. The triangles in Figure 2 have the strips in the north and west positions backwards. Just make them all face the same way as shown for the east and south strips.
