They're so SO handy. I've made them to carry library books, knitting/crochet supplies, laundry, ballet shoes, etc. A few years ago, I even made them into scripture bags for Aryn's friends. I'm telling you this bag is VER.SA.TILE.Anyway, I needed a new bag and figured this would be a great GIVEAWAY. I went to the DVR and guess what? Gene had erased THE episode with the instructions! Since I've made so many bags, I can make them on my own, but I wanted to share the instructions with all of you...Would any of you be interested in a HOW TO?
So. Without further ado... I present the MARKET BAG. I wish I could say it in French. I think it would sound fancier. But alas, No, and Gene's not here to translate... Speaking of french, I did construct it using french seams. Does that count?
This is one side of the bag. The fabric is Country Life from Waverly.
And this is the other side of the bag. The fabric is Ballad Bouquet from Waverly.
I had to just sneak in a picture of one of the squashes. (Can you see it below the bags?) I came home and found a few of them, and pumpkins too. It was almost like they just appeared. Crazy, I tell you.So, here's how it works:
- Leave a comment on this post and you'll be entered to win.
- Like last month, here's the twist...Since June is Father's Day month, if your last name or your maiden name matches my dad's or gene's dad's, you get an extra vote. The names are GUBLER and BLAIR.
- The giveaway closes on Saturday @ 2:30 pm MST. Good Luck!
p.s. On Sunday while, perusing the internet, I found this blog. It's near Chateau Beynac, along the Dordogne River, a place Gene and I visited 11 years ago. It brought back some great memories. It also reminded me about another secret dream I have... I guess I'll just get to live this one vicariously.
=========================================

Woohoo I am the first one. Your bags are so cute. Did you get my message for the wallets? Let me know what works for you.
Me, me! I think you should have added that anyone with your grandFATHER's last name should get a second entry too :o) Cute bags and the squash looks great!
you are oh so talented
two votes for me! SWEET! a girl can NEVER have too many bags - especially when they're as fantabliawesome as this!
PS I'm thinkin' if you even know what a french seam is, let alone know how to make one, it TOTALLY counts!

HOW ABOUT MY BROTHER MARRIED A GIRL WHOSE MOTHER'S LAST NAME WAS GUBLER AND ACTUALLY IS A SISTER TO YOUR DAD, DOES THAT COUNT?
I would LOVE.TO.WIN.
My last name is Gubler and I have a nephew named Blair (just in case that counts).

I love those bags. I was just asking Aryn about hers last time we were down there!
Those are so cute! I would love to be in the drawing.
i want one! I still use the one you gave me all the time!
I am so lucky because I think I may be the last one to comment! I just remembered that you had a give-away while I was doing my sat. chores and so I checked and I think I will barely make it in! But I do have the name of Gubler! So woo hoo!
I used to watch HGTV all day. I loved it and still have some recorded too.
I know this giveaway is over, I would love to know if you are willing to share the instructions for this bag, I have looked and looked for sarah's instructions but to no avail, would you please consider a tutorial, thank you, Diana
