It is also a great size and shape. It might be a good replacement for my <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2021\/10\/travel-bag-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Travel \/ Go-to-Sew-Day<\/a> Bag. Or at least a partial replacement.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, I used the Tula Pink webbing for the shoulder strap. It isn&#8217;t the perfect color, but works ok and Mom can unhook it and use it for other things. Using webbing means that I don&#8217;t have to make straps. I seem to remember making straps with webbing as the inside a la ByAnnie, but I can&#8217;t remember (or find) what project they were used on. It wasn&#8217;t a completely smooth process, but the strap went together pretty quickly and I am happy with them.<\/p>\n<p>I adore the rainbow hardware!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_55843\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-55843\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220504_212449_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-55843\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220504_212449_wm-sm-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Take a Stand Bag for Mom lining\/inside\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220504_212449_wm-sm-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220504_212449_wm-sm-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/20220504_212449_wm-sm.jpg 832w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-55843\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Take a Stand Bag for Mom lining\/inside<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I am pretty proud of the inside\/lining. It is hard to see in the photo, but easier if you make the photo larger. I used a text print with color wheel type paint blobs on it. It is perfect for my mom and came out really well in terms of placement in the bag.<\/p>\n<p>I have two more in the works, meaning that I have two more cut and quilted (such a chore), so you&#8217;ll see at least one of those soon. I decided that I want to make the larger size as well, but will have to cut and quilt that one before I can decide if it will be a good replacement for my <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2021\/10\/travel-bag-change\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Travel \/ Go-to-Sew-Day<\/a> Bag.<\/p>\n<p>I hope Mom likes this bag.
