    Well I guess i am first :)

    My friend Jodi G just posted this lovely tutorial on her blog

    http://www.tickleandhide.com/2013/12/pocket-pillow-tutorial.html

    She also has a pattern for a drawstring quilt/bag playmat which might help you go from bags to quilts gently.

    I'll sew just about anything. Most of the time it is clothes for my littles or baby gifts. Right now I am being really brave and working on a dress for me. I love the tutorials at Fishsticks Designs. One of my faves is the 91/2 minute pillow case. A great quick and fun gift. http://fishsticksdesigns.com/blog/?p=638

    My favorite things to sew right now are children's clothing and handbags. I have come across great sewing tutorials that I've tried. My pinterest board Sewing Tutorials has over 200 pins! It's hard to choose just one. I've made Noodlehead's Zippered Pouches numerous times for gifts. Try that one.
