Quilting and bag sewing together in one pattern? I say heck yeah! The Happy Heart Tote and Pouch is a super fun quilted bag set that is a great way to practice your quilting skills without tackling a full quilt. After writing knitting and sewing patterns since 2009, and then starting to write some quilt patterns in 2022, I thought quilted bags would be a fun to sew addition! I LOVE quilting, it ticks all of my crafty requirement boxes- so fun to sew, a beautiful piece of art, and super practical. I hope you share my quilting joy, and this is a great small project that isn't the same commitment as a full quilt!
The Happy Heart quilted tote is adorable on its own, and makes a perfect gift set when accompanied by the matching pouch. I'm sure your crafty brain is spinning with all of the cute options you can make up!
