Joplin Carpet Bag PDF Sewing Pattern

The Joplin Carpet Bag PDF pattern is here! Please note this download includes pattern pieces to tile and tape together. This is a super fun make that is very easy - the hardest part will be inserting the pins into the frame. (At least for me it was a challenge because my hands aren't that strong). Use a mallet to wach 'em in and y ou're golden!

I'm using Shannon Fabrics Quilting Cuddle in the video tutorial for a unique alternative look, but any6 material will work if you have confidence using it.

This is a PDF pattern (instant download). The video is available for you (included). 

Approximate Finished Size: 18” W x 15” H x 7” D

Materials / Hardware Requirements: 

16” Tubular Frame (1)
Shannon Quilting Cuddle  1 yard
Quilting Cotton for lining  1 yard + 8” x 36” for pockets
SF101 or Callie Del equiv  2 yards
2” wide jacquard webbing 90” length total
Stretch Needle 90/14 ( required for Quilting Cuddle)

Helpful tools: Usual sewing tools such as a rotary cutter and measuring mat, sewing stiletto, pins or clips, and a Teflon pressing sheet. Some people might prefer sewing this bag with a walking foot if using the Shannon Quilting Cuddle like I am in the video.
Fray Check is helpful to treat raw webbing edges.
