| My version of a Lollipop Bag :) |
The original bag apparently has raw edges inside - I came up with a way to do it without raw edges. I give my attempt an 8/10 - the lining doesn't fit snugly inside my bag - it's kinda bunchy. It loses a point for that :D I suspect that the lining in an "official" Lollipop would be somewhat bunchy as well. I'll be thinking about this and trying to figure out a work-around. I also gave myself a -1 for not doing the quilting differently on the contrast base - I should have quilted the base lengthwise instead of width-wise - it would look better, I think. That's an easy enough fix the next time around. I also need to find a way to press that bottom seams during construction - it would make the base look crisper. Overall, though, I'm mighty pleased with my attempt!
Oh that's very clever. I don't much like raw edges on a project so I think you did a great job. You need a mini seam iron to get inside and iron the seams. My linings are always baggy - it's a design decision
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I haven't seen this pattern yet. Might be good for sending via post, lol.
ReplyDeleteI love it! You are so clever, I wouldn't like the raw edges either! Way to go Sandra! You are the best-est! :) Hugs, Mickie
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link. I love the bottoms on these.
ReplyDeleteToo much cuteness right there :)
ReplyDeleteI don't like raw edges, either... great going coming up with your own solution! I do like bags that stand up all by themselves. Yours looks lovely in the yellow / green combo.
ReplyDeleteI love bags that can stand up. This is a really clever design and your version is beautiful. I'd give it a 10 :)
