This month, we will be making a quick and easy Big Bag. The Bag has a full Lining with two handle options, an optional Flap, and a Decorative Edge Finish. I’ve designed the Bag to be a lightweight canvas or duck cloth for the outside fabric and quilt-weight cotton or blend for the lining. The Bag folds or rolls into a compact size and secures with a Flap or Twisted Handles.  This Bag is an excellent replacement for paper Shopping bags, or any time you need a nice Big Bag!

Techniques this month: Decorative Edge Finishes, Reinforcing seams, curves, and Box Bottoms

Hi I'm PJ



Since 2006 I’ve been a teacher at Montavilla Sewing Centers in the Portland Metro area. I design, produce and teach the monthly projects for Babylock Serger Club, Janome, BabyLock and Brother Machine Embroidery Club, and 8” Block of the month Club.

I have a lot of fun creating projects, designs, and patterns that incorporate techniques and products to encourage the students to get the most out of their Sergers or Embroidery Machines.
