Here is the finished quilt, which will very shortly be on its way to a 14 year old girl with cancer.
The turquoise spot turned out to be very handy, as I found it was the ideal match for some Michael Miller fabric I was planning to make a bag with. 
This bag is my original design - by which I mean that all the components are taken from various other bags, resized and reorganised. After all, a bag's a bag! I'm particularly pleased with this one, as I've finally mastered a zipped pocket inside it!
Here you can see the zipped pocket in the lining, and an ordinary set of flap pockets. The bag is for a workshop after Christmas, and I hope people like it enough to want to make it!

Lynda, found your blog as you left a comment on my Stash Manicure post awhile back. I'm enjoying seeing all the Linus quilts. What a wonderful pursuit! I'll have to join you in that as we have organizations collecting quilts for kids too.
Loved your New England photos too. I live on the other side of the continent from N.E. but have a fascination with the Maine coast.
I like that top on the bag. It really looks professionally made. You did a great job putting all those components together.
Wow Lynda that quilt is gorgeous and your bag too - i'm loving that Michael Miller fabric. Hope your workshop goes well.
Both projects look great...Your bag worked out well...and the zip is in like a pro!
