My first attempt at a Mondo bag. Other members of our West Kelowna Quilters have made a few of these and was interested in doing one as well. Had to buy the pattern as I couldn't find just the instructions on line. The pattern comes with a grid that you lay out your squares on to quilt. Didn't use it as I already had some 9 patches left over from another project. I like how the bag is sewn, kind of like a windmill. But it turned out very big. Would like to try again but make it smaller. Uses a 4 x 12 grid of 2.5" squares. So maybe 3 X 10 next time. Will see how it works.
Overall, I am happy with the bag though. Great for a beach bag where you can put big stuff into it. Used all leftovers that I had so the bag did not cost me anything. That is always a bonus!
