From the time I made my first model to introduce my new pattern, “The Junk Bag” back in October 2009 until now; I feel very blessed to see and know that people are still making their own Junk Bags.  It’s even fun seeing my bags made up on other people’s blogs and here are links to 3 blogs that talk about “The Junk Bag” pattern:
It’s Sew Shannon
Cookie’s Creek
Chik With Yarn
As I have been taking little day trips in and around Wichita this summer I thought it would be fun to see how many of The Junk Bags I could find in the Quilt Shops that I’ve visited, I took some pictures of a few of the bags in 3 of the local shops; and wanted to share them with you.

Here’s one from Material Girls Quilt shoppe,

This is the front of a bag.

here’s the back of the same bag,
and the bag can be found at Picket Fence Quilt Shop,

and this one is from Charlotte’s Sew Natural Quilt Shop in Newton, Kansas. All of these quilt shop owners know that in order to sell patterns and fabric you have to make a model. It’s a win/win situation and it’s always fun seeing all the different fabrics that everyone chooses for their own bags. I love how each one is unique and made to fit each persons’ personality. I hope everyone is staying cool and having a wonderful summer.
