I recently purchased the Little Glam Bag pattern made by
Pink Sand Beach Designs at a local quilt shop (
Cranberry Quiltworks in Yorba Linda, CA) while on the Southern California Quilter's Run back in June.

Little Glam Bag by Pink Sand Beach Designs |
While on the shop hop I was looking for a bag pattern that was small enough to hold just what I needed for an upcoming quick trip: cell phone, chap-stick, cash and the necessary identification cards we all need. This bag was perfect. It used two fat quarters, a 1/4 yard of fusible fleece (enough to make three of four bags) and a seven inch zipper. I added a ribbon and a charm to "glam" it up. It took me about three hours to sew this bag up and when done I was very happy with the results. The optional wrist strap was the right addition as I was walking busy streets and wanted that added protection to prevent myself from dropping the bag or having it taken out of my hand.
The bag finishes up at 81/2" wide and 5 1/4 tall - a perfect little glam bag size! It was so easy to carry around while on my short trip and now I have the added benefit of having a visual reminder of a wonderful time.
