She didn&#8217;t ask for one, but I decided to make her one any way. Her birthday was July 26, so I had about a week to make it when I returned. I had a week or so in between everything else &#8211; niece&#8217;s wedding, YM visiting, etc.<\/p>\n<p>I had to quilt the bottom and I am never happy about quilting, but I am pleased with how this quilting came out.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63446\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63446\" style=\"width: 282px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144523_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63446\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144523_wm-sm-282x300.jpg\" alt=\"Paris Enigma Bag - interior bottom\" width=\"282\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144523_wm-sm-282x300.jpg 282w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144523_wm-sm-768x818.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144523_wm-sm.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 282px) 85vw, 282px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63446\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paris Enigma Bag &#8211; interior bottom<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I used the same fabric I used for the <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2023\/11\/finished-disco-double-zip-pouch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Disco Double Zip pouch<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2022\/12\/gift-post-3-percheron-pouch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Percheron Pouch<\/a>. This is great fabric for my sister as she loves Paris.<\/p>\n<p>I made two of these at the same time. You will see the other one later. Making the same bag multiple times makes them go together faster, but also means I can pay attention to the details. I was able to select which side panel would work for the top and which would be better for the front without a lot of drama. Since I knew what to expect, I could think about the finer details.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_63445\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-63445\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144537_wm-sm.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-63445\" src=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144537_wm-sm-300x278.jpg\" alt=\"Paris Enigma Bag - zipper end\" width=\"300\" height=\"278\" srcset=\"https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144537_wm-sm-300x278.jpg 300w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144537_wm-sm-768x712.jpg 768w, https:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/20240719_144537_wm-sm.jpg 802w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 85vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-63445\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Paris Enigma Bag &#8211; zipper end<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I also found a good place for my label and was able to add it in the course of making the inside pocket.<\/p>\n<p>The zipper end was a pain, but ending up coming out well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is Enigma #5.
