Hi everyone, I’m Samantha, aka Mrs H, from Sewing patterns by Mrs H. I also blog over at ‘At home with Mrs H‘ where you can see a slice of our crazy family life!
Today I’m here to share with you some of the amazing February Bag of the Month Club bags that are popping up in the Flickr group! I loved Sara’s pattern, it’s just perfect for showing off those statement fabrics!
First up is this Michael Miller version by Courtney, I love the contrast of the card slots inside!
This next Hyacinth bag shows the under flap features in use, it’s a great bag Nancy!
Mary’s used some great pattern placement to get her fabric perfectly positioned for this flap!
Who wouldn’t love a bag with this beautiful panel on the front? Great fussy cutting Melisa Jane!
Once again, I’ve dived under the flap for this great view of the February bag, I love your fabrics Katie!
Check out Rita’s quilting on her Hyacinth bag, it’s absolutely perfect!
Daryl has really made the most of the flap size with this beautiful African print. Another great bag!
This next bag was made from Totem fabrics, and Donna even got to share it with Anna Maria Horner when they met at Quilt con!
I love Debbie’s contrast zipper on this next Hyacinth bag, it really makes it pop
And finally, I fell in love with this February bag made with Atlas print fabric by Maxine, it’s gorgeous!
Thank you so much Sara for letting me guest-post, I’ve loved this whistlestop tour of the Hyacinth bag pattern! If you’d like to make your own, subscriptions are still open for the Bag of the Month Club.

I love the Hyacinth bag and it looks like it would fit my journal and my iPad! I have to run over and check the sizes.
I’m fairly certain it would be a great size for you!
This is a great post, and a fun way to showcase the Hyacinth Bag. Everyone’s versions look wonderful! Thank you, Sara, and all the designers for putting together the Bag of the Month Club.
I’m always so impressed with how creative bag makers are. We make the patterns, but you guys really take them to the next level!
these are wonderful. such a practical yet fun and pretty bag
The best of both worlds, right 😉
Thanks Samantha for choosing my bag to highlight here on Sara’s blog. Just to clarify about my flap: I painted the background fabric, the African woman I drew on in a Zentangle style with a fabric pen and I appliqued all the flowers and hearts and things around the exterior and quilted it all, so the flap is not a commercial print at all; but the other fabrics and lining fabric are commercial prints. I wanted to use the flap like an artist uses a blank canvas and create something different. Even the friend that I gave this bag to didn’t know I created the flap myself, she too thought it was a commercial fabric, LOL!!! I know I am not that good, LOL!!!
Ms Sara you are truly awesome!!!!
