Eleven 4-shaft projects, one 6-shaft project, one 8-shaft project. You’ll find bag sizes from large totes for carrying almost anything to small luxury evening bags with sequinned, pile, or silky surfaces.

You can choose to weave a briefcase, diaper bag, purse organizer, envelope for storing fine lingerie, cosmetic bag, carry-all, or eyeglasses case, and more. Not only will these projects result in beautiful bags you’ll love to use, but you’ll also learn how to create weft pile, weave boundweave on opposites, do doubleweave pick-up, produce a ripply seersucker, dye an ikat warp, and stuff doubleweave pockets with sequins. Project instructions include how to assemble and sew the bags—only the most basic sewing skills are required."
