In a gift making frenzy I have gone a bit purse/bag/pouch mad lately and dug up some links to free patterns online. Kwik sew has a free sample pattern of a Clutch Purse which is ideal to adapt as a crazy quilting project.
For your stitching adventures!
Great patterns! Thanks.
Are you familiar with Wild Ginger? They have a free downloadable pattern for making (and customizing the sizing) for hats and bags and things.

There’s another one at http://www.artchixstudio.com — along with many other free tutorials in the altered paper/fabric world.
Hey, Sharon, here’s another link to a free tutorial I found last night — http://www.artchixstudio.com — with several (ok, LOTS) of free tutorials on different sorts of altered art, both fabric and paper.
Sharon, I just got an error message with the Clutch Purse link.
Thanks for the link to the clutch purse – that’s a great pattern! There’s a wonderful book by Amy Barickman titled “Bag Boutique. Making Fabulous Purses and Totes”. She has patterns for different styles of bags that would also work well for CQ.
