Melissa stitched up the downloadable Lickety Split Bag from Made By Rae using fabric from Stamped by Ellen Luckett Baker. The clever reversible design of the bag calls for one yard of each fabric for the interior and one yard of fabric for the exterior. The simple construction makes it an easy project to complete in just a couple of hours. Melissa chose to add a contrasting stripe down the center using Moda Bella Quilt Binding in Chartreuse left over from another project.
The generously sized bag allows for placement of many handy pockets. The Finished size is 18 “wide x 13″ inches tall at the center. The overall height is 34? total with straps untied, approx 26? with straps tied.
Melissa’s fabulous color match for her bag includes the following fabrics.
Michael Miller Cotton Couture Nite
Free Spirit Designer Solids Paprika
Kona Cotton Lime
What a versatile bag. The pattern is downloadable so you can get started on a bag for yourself right now. You’ll find yourself using it for everything: a book bag, shopping bag, stroller bag, diaper bag, and more!
Happy sewing!

Someone made me this bag in a swap–it really is such a great bag. Your version is beautiful!
What a great tote and the fabric combination is fantastic, as always. Happy weekend to everyone at Pink Chalk!!!
