The T-Bag.

This is one of those bags, which is as the name suggests, is a T.  This is the shape of the pattern.  It is a good way to use up squares of fabric scraps.

 Use iron-on interfacing, it can be a light weight one.

Cut two and draw the squares on the interfacing, these will be placement for the squares.

 Once the squares are in place, fuse them to the interfacing.

  Creating two T's for the bag.  They can be match or be as scrappy as you want them to be.

Next,  fold the first row of squares, back over the row of squares, right next to it.  Right sides together, then sew these two rows together.  Do this until all the vertical rows are sewn.

Next pin the horizontal rows and stitch all of those rows.

 This is the main body of the bag.

 Cut two layers of batting, for the main body.

Cut two layers of lining for the main body.  Layer them, with the batting sandwiched in the middle, right sides of the fabric showing to the outside.  The same way you would sandwich a quilt.  Then quilt the three layers, together.  Do both T's for the bag. Then stitch binding to the top of both T's.

Next do the front and back pockets for the bag.

This bag has machine embroidered pockets on the front and the back of the bag.

Layer the embroidered pockets on top of batting and the lining.  Then quilt these pockets. Also stitch binding at the top of the pockets.

Once they are quilted, trim them to fit the narrow section of the T.  Next sew them to the main body of the T on the narrow T section.  The bottom of the pocket is sewn down, right where the narrow section becomes the large part of the T-section.

Layering, the two T's on top of each other, right sides showing to the outside. Then stitch three sides of the centre nine patch on the large Top section of the T, creating a U-shape. Then turn the side flaps towards the front and back on the sides and attach.

 It should look like this, with the squares showing on the outside.

 Cover the raw edges, on the sides with binding.  Stitch on handles to your main bag and your bag is done.
