EDITOR’S NOTE: This pattern is no longer available for free, but you can purchase it for $5 from the designer.
Meet Maggie. Maggie the Taggie Owl, that is. She’s a cute little taggie blanket made for small hands to hold. She has small ribbon tags around her body, and a soft faux fur backing. She’d make a sweet gift to welcome a new baby! Suzanne from Just Another Hangup shares a free pattern and tutorial for making one. Get the pattern and tutorial.

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!
It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.
Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
Your headline reads “FREE” Pattern and then you say for $5 I can get the pattern. Sounds like a bait and switc
This is an older post. When I originally published it (2012), it was a free pattern. Since then, the designer has moved it to her shop where it is available for sale. It was not intended as a bait-and-switch, at least not on my part (and I wouldn’t think on the author’s part, either.) I have no financial relationship with the designer. I receive no compensation for any of her sales. I have added a note to the post here at Craft Gossip saying that this is now a “for sale” pattern. –Anne
