I brought these “No Bully Zone” fabrics back from Quilt Market just over a year ago, and Samantha has been asking what I had planned for them since! They’re from the Kanvas Cool School collection from Benartex. Samantha actually wrote on her Christmas Wish List this year that she’d like a bag made from the No-Bullying fabric. I guess she finally decided on my plan for them! Samantha tends to prefer messenger bags to traditional shoulder bags, and she loves anything that is fun and funky. I designed this casual, unstructured bag specifically for her. There’s a big pocket on the center front and a set of pen, pencil and cell phone pockets hidden down inside. I love the funky patchwork design that came from this mix of fabrics and the frayed edges on the patches. The peace signs work really well with the No Bully Zone fabric, too, don’t they? I think Samantha’s going to love this bag. I hope so, anyway!(Don’t you just love my photo background? I was hiding in the garage so that I could take pictures without Samantha seeing . . . I was terrified the whole time that she was going to throw open the door to take something to the washer!)
