The Bag Lady Strikes Again

A dear friend had a birthday and knee replacement surgery last week and I wanted to send a care package. She loves pink so if it was pink, I included it 

and of course I wanted to mail it all in a cute bag. I have quite a few stashed, but nothing pink so I made a few:

I used the Lined Drawstring Bag pattern. I have definitely gotten my money's worth from this pattern. I'm betting I've made 100 of these bags through the years in all sizes (these are great for Christmas gifts!). So while I was at it, I made 2 more bags - this little patchwork cheater print made cute bags

I popped into our local quilt shop last week to look for a coordinating print for something else and picked up this fun wine print 

so wine bag making was added to the que

And while I was rifling through a pile of fabric, I came across some bag pieces I had cut out probably sometime last year so I finished those off 

I don't do much gifting anymore, and I still have a few left from earlier bag making marathons but it's surprising how often I reach for one of these and now I ought to have enough to last a little while:
