Welcome to Finished or Not Friday where you can share your finished {or not} projects!
My first finish to share this week is Summer Solstice. Since I posted about it yesterday, I won't repeat all the details, and you can go read about the quilt HERE. This quilt is for sale in my Etsy shop!
I made this cute grocery bag yesterday as an easy project to relax my brain after working so hard on Summer Solstice. The outside is a decorator fabric, and the inside and handles are a Riley Blake gingham print. The bag took one hour total, including cutting time, and I'm fairly certain I can make it quicker when I make a batch of bags for myself. {I live in Bagless Bellingham, so I carry bags with me everywhere I go.}
The bag is made from a pattern by Michelle's Patterns, an Indie Designer on Craftsy. You can find the pattern HERE. The pattern includes three sizes, and this bag is the medium size. The handles are designed to fit onto the metal bag holders at the grocery store to make filling them easier, and the handles are short enough to not drag the bag on the ground when carried {super important for height-impaired people like me!}
I am giving away this bag to one lucky reader!
