I thought this link might be rather useful, there are lots of free patterns, ideas, & further links within it.

Thank you - some great ideas on there!  I also like the look of the feather bed quilt on the right too - here.  Though I don't know how to do quilting myself but it's lovely.

Some great inspiration. I am hoping to organise some folks to make bags here, there used to be a handbag factory in our village during Soviet timescheers
