A Bag To Cheer For

Sewist’s Name: Faye Pottorff from Illinois

Type of Project: Duffel Bag

Pattern Used: Travel Duffles with Trolley Sleeves by Studio Cherie

Featured Date: Week of 12-15-22

Hi! My name is Faye Pottorff and I live in Illinois.  I have been sewing for over 50 years.  I love making quilts but I also like sewing bags.  This particular bag is for my granddaughter, Rylie.   She is in the 6th grade and this is her first year being a cheerleader. 

I opted not to do the Trolley Sleeves and instead I added a different side pocket and an inside pocket. My version has a zipper pocket on each side and a zipper pocket on the inside. Orange and blue are her school colors and this bag will perfectly match her cheerleading uniform. I hope she likes the this bag. (I’m sure she will love it!!!)
