Fabric
Option 1 - 1 1/4 yards if making it
from just a single fabric (You may need more if you want to fussy cut or
directional.)
Option 2 - 6 fat quarters (if
you want an accent for your binding 5"-6" piece full width of fabric)
Notions
1 1/2 yard interfacing (SF 101
shape flex)
1 - 22" polyester / nylon
zipper for exterior
4 - 9" polyester / nylon
zipper for interior
Thread ( you will be doing top
stitching, so you might want matching thread)
Sewing machine needles Microtex
80/12 & 90/14's
Optional - 10" x 17"
batting for use to quilt the outside of the bag
(I suggest something very thin, like Warm &
Natural.)
Cutting - Please label each piece
as you cut (i.e. A - 10 x 16 1/2). You will have a few pieces can be
easily mistaken for another piece.
A - Outside of Bag 10" x 16
1/2" - cut 1
(If you
are using a directional fabric you will want to cut 2 pieces roughly
10
1/2" x 10 1/2". Seam these pieces so that the direction of the
design are going in opposite directions.
If you choose to quilt this piece cut it larger, quilt and then trim to
size.)

10 1/2" - cut 1
