Inside of the bag showing all of the pockets The finished bag Now that we have straps, the bag is basically finished. I added some strips of hook and loop tape to the inside edges of my bag to help keep it closed when I'm carrying it. You could also put magnetic closures or ties on the sides if you want. Here's my finished retreat bag with all of my supplies packed inside. Everything is organized and easy to see. I love it!! Thanks for spending this week with me. I really enjoyed experimenting with Northcott's ColorWorks Concepts fabrics and I really love my new quilted tote bag! I wonder if I have time to make another one for a birthday present for one of my quilting buddies! Check out your local quilt shop to find more of Northcott's great fabrics. 57 QUILTsocial .com | issue 6
