WORKSHOP: "Mondo Bag" with Kris Cisse (IN-PERSON)

Registration opens on April 21, 2026

“If only I had room in my bag for one more thing..." You'll never say that again once you make a Mondo Bag!

Learn all the tips and tricks needed to use the QuiltSmart printed interfacing panels to make the Mondo Bag. You will have perfectly-matched seams and a roomy, comfortable bag using the QuiltSmart grid interfacing technique.

The bag bottom is about 10 inches square with 17-inch tall sides. There is also a Midi Bag pattern with an 8-inch square bottom and 12-inch tall sides.  Kris can guide you in the same workshop session if you prefer to make the smaller size bag

There are several ways to approach the Mondo Bag. You can use almost any pre-cut to have a cohesive color scheme (Mini Charm Packs, Jelly Roll Strips, 5” Charms, Fat Quarters). You can also raid your stash or scrap bin to come up with your textile plan. The supplies list has the yardage requirements for each of these pre-cut possibilities, plus for the fabric needed for the lining and straps.

This workshop is suitable for a confident beginner to experienced sewists.

If you do not already have the pattern, Kris will have Mondo Bag patterns and printed interfacing for purchase at the wholesale rate of $10 (payable to her on the day of the workshop). If you have the Midi Bag pattern/grid you can choose to make that, but patterns for that size will not be for sale in class.

Lunch will be served at no additional cost.
