   Maybe I'm having a bit of brain fog this morning, but what is a "Pie Bag"?

   A Pie Bag is a tote that has pie (wedge) shaped pockets inside for organizing your stuff; beach stuff, gardening stuff, knitting stuff, etc.And .... I found my directions in a "Quick to Make" book from Threads; that is why I thought I had it in a magazine.

   Is this the same design as the jewelry pouches that are made from 2 circles, the smaller circle creating the pockets?  A drawstring pulls it all together at the top?

   No, it is quite a bit larger. There is a circle piece for the bottom, a long rectangle for the outer wall and 3 smaller rectangles for the inner walls. These inner walls form wedge shaped pockets, so when you look down on the open bag it resembles a pie. The directions say you can make it small for a hand bag or larger for a tote. I have not made one yet, but I want to get a head start on Christmas gifts this year!!Threads issue 87 was listed in the index as the source; I have directions in the book "Quick to Make - stylish gifts.." from Taunton Press.Becky

   I will have to look it up it sounds interesting.  But first I'll have to find one or the other of the directions since neither is in my files.
