At our last
Chicago Modern Quilt Guild retreat in Racine, buddy
Ebony Love gave me a special zipper. It's purple with black and white teeth. Wow! I love it! What an great reason to make a new
Aeroplane Bag. Sara L has asked if I will do both the larger and smaller Aeroplanes for her in her new line of
Jungle Fabrics for Quilt Market in May. But I have always had a bit of trouble with the zipper on this bag. So my goal is to get this bag all ready - black bottom, black-white stripe body, purple handles, grey lining, and two fabulous purple fat quarters (incidentally, from Ebony as well) for the pockets. When Sara says my two kits are ready, I will drive to her house on the North Side and get a zipper lesson from the master. Meanwhile, here are the new arrangements on the design wall:
