Zippers are NO BIG DEAL!!! Just ask Terry Atkinson and Me


At Quilt Market in May I had the pleasure of meeting Terry Atkinson and fell in love with her cute "Zippered", yes I said "Zippered" bags. Now I don't make bags, I am a quilter. However I have become addicted to making these. Terry Atkinson's new patterns make them fast, fun and easy. They make perfect quick gifts and best of all you can use your scraps. Check out her patterns on my website: Elkhorn Quilt Company. They are called "Cash & Carry" and "Zippy Strippy". Once you learn her technique you can make any size bag you need. This one pictured is for my camera. I made it a little bigger and doubled the fusible fleece to give it more padding. Well I better go......I need to make one for my GPS.
