Thanks for the great instructions! I just made one for each of my kids! They love them, and I love that they can now carry all their gear (and I don’t have to!)

I have been using a towel/bag like this for my car for about 10 years now. My dog likes to sit in the front seat. The straps are great, they fit right around the headrest and the towel covers the seat completely. I can take it out and wash it or at least shake it. Works perfectly!

Thank you for this pattern, I am going to make several for christmas gifts for my nieces. I found a bunch of bright colored over-sized towels, I just need to go back and find some cute accent towels for the pocket, then I will embroider their names on them. (have a brother machine, my best friend :O) I made the quillow’s years ago.

You can do something similar with a nightgown and a zippered “pocket” on the belly. Had one years ago, and it was described as a “sleepover pillow/nighty” You folded up the night gown, then turned it inside out into the “Pocket” which zipped closed. The one we had was a garfield decorated one. Inside out, it was warm and fuzzy.

I’m so happy that I bumped into this pattern. I saw the bag at a festival and wanted to know how to make it. I think it would make great gifts for all my grandkids.
