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.
