49\Insulated Lunch Bag with Drink Pouch
\Insulated Lunch Bag with Drink Pouch
I have been sewing and crafting for as long as I can remember. As a
designer, I find it very satisfying to visualize a style and to figure out
the mechanics of putting it all together. With each iteration of a design,
I learn more about the structure of bags. Often, inspiration comes from
the beautiful fabrics available today. Other times, the challenge is trying
to find the fabric to complement the design I envision.

Finished size: 7˝ × 10˝ × 31/2˝
Innovative and imaginative., this bag has it all: a toggle-cinch drink
pocket on the outside, an ingenious looped closure to keep the
contents secure, and a slim interior pocket perfect for sliding in an ice
pack—all combined with a bias-tape edging adding a finishing touch.
