Subscriber Giveaway for October 2020: Project Bag Sewing Pattern by Janet Clare
This month we are giving away this stylish project bag pattern from Janet Clare. Almost every quilter, patchworker and crafter that Janet knows loves a mini charm pack of fabric. The pattern was designed with that in mind! With just a single 5″ charm pack (42 squares of 5” fabric) and the addition of a little lining fabric and oval handles, this pattern makes a bag which is perfect for all those unfinished objects (UFOs)! The detailed pattern includes step by step instructions and lots of close up photographs to show how to piece the bag from the 5” charm squares. It also includes lots of close-up photographs to show Janet’s fabric selections. FINISHED BAG MEASURES 13 1/2 X 12 INCHES. To enter the competition just send an email entitled PROJECT BAG to justhandsontvcomp@gmail.com . The closing date for the competition is 31 October 2020
