The pink silk rag and perle cotton weave was going to be a pair of skinny pink cats, when I wove it. That is, until I cut it into 3 strips, patched and pieced them together into one long strip, and finally sewed
Doni's bag. The sewing was a snap, and I made mine deep, so that it would safely hold some produce (tomatoes?) from the farmers' market, and maybe even survive a bike ride home, with no spills, the bag over my shoulder. I'll have to put it to that test. I do believe this bag would hold a calm cat.

It's truly a beauty! Ah, here we are under the Rag Bag Moon(mood?), thanks for the link to the bag pattern.
Susan! This bag is fantastic(and your photos too)!!!
I am really happy I put that tutorial on the blog - I'm sure your bag will be comfy to carry, even on the bike and full of groceries!
Where did you get the little tomato patch! It's wonderful (the whole bag...)

Joanne, a ragged moon. Yes, try this out. It's very ingenious
Donatella, you've created quite a stir out here in Wisconsin. I'm so glad you decided to share the pattern. It was a fun to make it at last
Jaimie, the tomato ribbon is from Laura Foster Nicholson. I used to sell it, but you can find it at some fabric stores.
Ha. I was trying to choose my identity, and hit the wrong key above so became "anonymous"
Susan (so that doesn't happen again)
