I seen a potato bags 30 years ago at a quilt show. I was short on money, so I eye balled it. Measured with my hand and went home and made one with it being still in my mind. Wasn’t just right so I guessed and after about 3 or 4 times I got what I thought was close enough. Made one for everyone in my family & friends. Some how a lady got hold of me saying she had a friend that had a potato bag I had made and wanted to know if I wanted to make 100! For a ladies group down in Tucson. For the next 3 years, I made 100 again and again. They make wonder gifts. I had felt guilty about not buying the pattern, so the next quilt show I looked and looked, finally I found a pattern and bought one. Relief off my shoulders that I now had a pattern!!! Let me tell you, I was pretty darn close to the pattern. Made me feel good. I like your idea of the little strap on side. As the bag does get hot. No that popcorn bag looks interesting!!! LoL Enjoy your videos, very helpful.
So cool, Colleen! This idea has been around forever and, as you said, they make great gifts. That was sweet of you to think of the author & look for her pattern. I had made these bags before with a bigger strap & sometimes it created problems in the microwave so I like the size of this one. I'm loving the popcorn bag with the bigger boxed bottoms & thinking they will be gifts that I'll be giving this year. Thanks for all of your comments & glad you're enjoying my videos!
So glad to hear you love this one! They would make perfect Christmas gifts~ I could see filling a big basket with the bag, popcorn, seasonings, a good movie & something fun to drink. Thanks for sharing!
