Reef Theme Mesh Bag

In my opinion, the most fun about making these mesh bags is pulling together the three fat quarters and deciding what mesh and zipper to put with them. This bag has a coral reef theme with a floaty blue print for the main body, a coral camouflage print for the lining, and a deep blue for the binding.  I chose a deep blue zipper and hot pink mesh.

I made twelve of these bags in 2021: seven in my post for 4/9/21, four in my post for 6/6/21, and one in my post for 6/15/21. Just this year I made a Rainbow Brite themed one for my daughter seen in my post for 2/19/26 and saxophone themed one for my granddaughter seen in my post for 4/16/26. This mesh bag makes number fifteen. It is going to a friend  undergoing surgery. Perhaps she may use it to store all those many, many hospital papers after her discharge. My hope is that this bag will be a burst of color to brighten a trying experience. And, unlike well-wishing flowers, it does not need watering or other care.

This project bag is made from the Piecekeeper pattern available in bulk from byAnnie.com. Individual copies of the one-page pattern can be found for sale on Etsy. More details are available near the end of my post for 4/16/26.
