The Ultimate Travel Bag - Weekend Warrior Mini Retreat

The perfect travel companion, this functional bag includes a comfortable padded adjustable carrying strap and quick-grab side handles, as well as a handy trolley sleeve on back to secure the bag to rolling luggage.

Zippered and slip pockets on the front, back, and ends plus a full-height zippered pocket and three more slip pockets inside will keep everything organized and close at hand.

Optional buttons on the bottom reduce wear.

The bag measures 13¾"H x 14½"W x 4½"D at the top and 13¾"H x 18½"W x 8"D at bottom. Photo Credit: byannie.com

This workshop will run 10am - 5pm for both days. It will be an instensive bag making session, and it is recommended that participants have some bag making experience. We will be using foam as a main stabilizer, quilting all bag panels, installing hardware, constructing zipper and slip pockets, straps, using mesh, foldover elastic and making bias seam binding as a finishing technique. 

Lunch will be provided for both days and selections will be made available prior to the workshop.
