The four hour bag


Aaron and I are heading down to Denver this evening to have dinner with his family and give his aunt her new quilt (shown in a previous post). At the last minute I decided that wrapping the quilt up in a used Amazon box didn't do it justice so I made up a quick bag to present the quilt in. 

The bag is made with extra quilt fabric. The solid blue is the same as the quilt's background, the honeycomb blue fabric is the quilt's backing, and the charcoal gray fabric is the same as the quilts connecting lines. The bag is fully lined and has an external pocket on each side. 

Aaron also put together a poster using the photos originally intended for the quilt. I put a snap on two scraps of fabric and wrapped that around the poster.

Too awesome. I really love the fabrics (you didn't happen to get that honeycomb at Stone Mountain Daughter before you left, did you?).

Happy (belated) Steve Day!
