Quilt bags

I've been in church this morning where there is a big crafty event for May Bank Holiday.
I met a new quilter, new to the area and new to quilting, so that was good.

Here are the quilt bags I've been making from some nice stripey linen, ahead of my trip to Yorkshire to give a talk about my work.

They are a simple construction with drawstrings on the long edges, a button closure, and tape for handles. I did most of the sewing last night and then finished off the bottom one this morning.
