I have been waiting for spring to arrive here in the Midwest, and I
made myself a large sketching board to take out into the woods and
sketch pastoral views. I needed a larger carry bag to handle the
board, sketch pad, pencils and all the other impedimenta that goes
along with such endeavors. Here is what results from all that time
stuck inside waiting for spring. The bag is 23" wide x 21" tall x 3"
deep. It is made from Black Cotton Duck which is quilted and a pattern
called Tumbling Blocks is used on the front and flap of the bag. A
padded and quilted strap completes the piece. I had the fabric from a
large stash of solid color patriotic stuff, that I use to make quilts
for Veterans. There are two views showing the bag closed and with the
flap thrown back showing the matching of flap pattern to bag front.
The flap is closed to the bag front, with brass snaps. This should
stand me in pretty good stead while stumbling through the poison Oak
in search of the perfect view.
Here you go.
