Sewing without a Pattern

Sometimes, you need to make something, and there isn't a pattern for it, or you don't have time to hunt one down and buy it.  This year, Allie needed a desk bag for first grade that would hang on the back of the desk rather than on the side.  Since it is basically an elongated rectangle folded and sewn together in certain places, I cut the fabric and went to work. 

Please ignore the piles of fabric in the background!  And one for a friend of hers.

I have a new project planned for tomorrow.  Stay tuned!
