I like big wide bags. that way i can fit a ton od things in there but they are still accesible to see with the width.
I am a follower.
I love a bag big enough for my wallet and cellphone but not so big that other stuff finds it way in. On that will stay on my shoulder (or across my body) so I have a hand free to grab, er hold stuff.
I love big bags - still nice looking but enough to fit all my stuff in. (I can never seem to minimise the amount of things I "need" to have with me!) This tote is beautiful - thanks so much for sharing it with us :)

I like bags that have lots of pockets. Whether they are small or large doesn't matter, as long as they have lots of pockets.
I am a happy follower.
What a pretty bag! I love medium to large bags because as a mom, I always need something in it for the kids!
I love a good sized bag buts stylish one too! Never carried one until I had my first who is 3! And now with two it needs to have a lot of room but not huge!
I am also a follower! Nthanks for the giveaway!
I love the tote style, but I need some pockets (outside, inside, whatever) for organization!

I am on the look out for a good across body bag.. I hate carrying a purse..
I've never had a cross-body bag...but think I would love it. I always have trouble with the straps falling off my shoulder so this would be perfect!
I'm a follower! Thanks for the giveaway!
I like big bags but full of pockets to keep it organized!
In love with this bag!
Well, I don't have a specific style, but I do have requirements. It needs color (now it used to be black). It has to close like zip so people can't steal from me..live in a bad area. And it has to hang from my shoulder to my hip not below or too high.
I generally love cross body bags but am trying to branch out! Thanks for the giveaway.
My purses can only have 1 strap (otherwise I'm always grabbing & trying to get the 2 together) and it needs to be adjustable. I love the bag you made - really love the fabric. Great giveaway - thanks for the chance to win.
I am a follower. Great giveaway - thanks for the chance to win an awesome bag.
I am a big fan of the 'over the shoulder' bag. If I use any other style it just falls off and I spend all day holding it on haha :)
Love this pattern and the colours :) GREAT JOB!
I am also a new follower :)
I like (must have) a big bag. With husband and child I become responsible for carrying a lot so it needs to be able to fit it all!
I'm a new follower!
This bag is pretty much ideal for me! I lover crossbody bags, with a "hobo" style, roomy and big enough to hold some diaper and baby items. Plus Joel Dewberry and outside pockets--<3

I like big tote-style bags that I can keep everything in!
I am currently loving my small Ness bag made of purple Harris tweed. It is less than a foot square - just my size. And it has numerous pockets inside.
I really like your bird fabric here.
Such a cute bag and I love the fabrics! My current favorites are bags with interior pockets big enough to hold a couple diapers and sippy cups, along with my stuff without being overly huge.
I usually use a hobobag style
I like big bags, so I can put everything inside!
I like bags that can be worn either on the shoulder or across my body. And they have to be big enough to fit my stuff in! I love the look of your bag - it seems like it would be big enough, stylish, and easy to carry!
Medium size with LOTS of pockets inside and out! I can't have too big of a bag, because I fill it too full and it gets too heavy to carry! It has to have a loooonnng strap so I can sling it around my neck and shoulder for hands-free shopping.
I am already a follower :D
I like a cross-body bag, not too small and with lots of pockets!
The bigger the bag the better, but it has to have a long handle to be worn across my front!
I like the small passport style bags
I love big bag's...........
after many years of lugging around a giant nappy/diaper bag, I have now gone to the opposite extream - smaller is bettter lol! Although I have been eyeing-up the 241 pattern for ages now!
and I am a follower
I love the bag! I'm realizing I like bags with one strap. Mine that I use right now has two and one of them is always falling off my shoulder.

I love so called U bags. But what is an absolute must is a uniqueness. I love having something special. And I am a new follower...
I love cross body bags - something comfortable that leaves my hands free!
I am a follower
Cross-body bags with lots of room are my favourite, although I'm loving Amy Butler's Birdie Sling these days. What a great giveaway - thank you!
I love big bags that can fit everything I need for a day out.
I like medium size to small bags with longer straps. I especially like market bags. Thanks for the chance to win!

I have always been a fan of the cross body...always a classic!
I like large bags and purses... the more room for my "stuff", the better! This bag you're generously giving away is BEAUTIFUL!! I love the fabric choices!
Messenger bags are my favourite! But I really love any kind of bags.
Thanks for the chance to win!
lauramdd(at)terra(dot)es
I like a large bag that doesn't look freakishly large. And it has to have tons of pockets and straps that are long enough to at least go on my shouldar (if not crossbody). Thanks for this opportunity.
I love the messenger bags. Not big.
I am a new follower
That tote is divine! Love the fabrics and the shape.
I prefer a bag for every purpose! I like a small cross-body bag as a purse, but also library and crafting project totes, sturdy shopping bags with wide handles, and tons of small zipper pouches for everything.
Thanks for the giveaway!
gypsyjolie(at)gmail(dot)com
Love the fabric you choose for this tote. I like roomy bags best, but I haven't made much more than simple shopping totes. I have a diaper bag halfway through, that I am making out of corduroy. I really should try to finish it. Making bag intimidates me though...
i love messenger bags sized big enough for a wallet, laptop, phone and diaper supplies
The bigger the better right now...my purse doubles as a diaper bag right now, so I need it bigger than usual!

I'm new here and am so glad to have found your blog. I love this 241 tote- I am a tote bagaolic. I really can't have enough! I've only made one purse/carry all tote (the Nikki tote by Michelle of I Like Orange Too) but the 241 is on my list. Would be great to win!
Thanks for the chance. Merry Christmas Rebecca!
I'm now a follower through Google Reader. :)
I don't tend to carry a whole ton in a purse, mostly just my wallet, some personal womanly stuff (ahem), chap stick, chequebook, and a few reusable shopping bags. So something smallish usually works for me! I'm entering your giveaway because I just ADORE the 241 bag pattern.
Cute! I like any kind of roomy bag because I inevitably end up carrying all of my children's things as well as mine! :)
I love totes, especially messenger style totes.
I love bags more than shoes lol. Any kind really, each has a place and purpose :) Starting January I'm planning on making my own handbag so I am searching for tutorials myself. Thanks for the giveaway. This one is simply lovely!
I'm a follower of this blog :)
I like my bags to go up about 3 inches above my wrist when I stick my hand inside, anything bigger and I have to involve my eyes when looking for something! I love this bag, especially the fabric!
I became a follower today!
I like cross-body bags because they're so much easier when you're pushing a buggy, and it needs to be roomy too - somehow I always seem to have too much stuff with me.
stashavalanche[at]gmail[dot]com
I like messenger bags because they are so versatile. I'm especially fond of monogrammed designs.
Thanks for the lovely giveaway.

Bags need to be plenty big, and with a shoulder and/or crossbody strap.
But mainly? Amazing fabric choices!! That's always the biggest deal!
i like the bird fabric on that bag! i don't have a favourite style of bag... just something with lots of pockets to help keep me organized ;)
Love the bag! My ideal bag would be big enough to hold my DLS, a notebook, snacks, a couple of pens, cell phone, tissue, hand sanitizer, and sunglasses. So I guess a large hobo or tote. :o)
I love messenger bags.
Wow! What a great giveaway. My favorite tote lately has been the 241 since I've been wanting one for a while. Thanks for the opportunity to win one.
What a cute bag! I love Amy Butler's market bag tote - roomy and good for anything!
Just became a follower!
the bigger, the better! i love the 241 and go anywhere patterns or any messenger style bag. thanks for the giveaway!
Beautiful bag!! I like bags with lots of room and pockets :)
i'm a follower. thanks.
I'm a follower! Thanks for the giveaway!
Oh man, this is my all-time favorite fabric line! My favorite aspects of a bag are to be over-the-shoulder and to have a crapload of pockets. I need something that allows me to grab kiddo goodies with ease! Thanks for the sweet giveaway, and Happy Holidays!
I'm now a follower too, thanks again!
cross-body bags are the best. Thanks for the chance to win :-) jjjcwebb (at) Hotmail d0t com

I love bags I can sling over my shoulder, with lots of pockets, so my chapstick, keys, and sunglasses don't all disappear into the black hole that lives at the bottom of purses and totes!
Oops! Sorry! I am a Fan on Facebook--I don't know if that counts as a "follower." I just started following on GFC, so please do count the previous comment.
The answer to the blog question is:
I actually really like quilted diaper bags. Even for daily use. I don't currently own one, but when I was younger, my aunt had a couple 'cause she had a baby and I really liked them and used one as my school bag.
I follow you!
My favorite kind of bag is one that can cross over my body and hold my pistol. :-)
I prefer cross body bags because it's so much easier to chase the kiddos than with an over-the-shoulder. I would love to be able to carry and small bag but always need the space of a larger one. Love the fabrics you chose.
Lovely bag, what beautiful fabric! I can't choose a favourite type of bags, I love them all! I generally swap between different types and styles on a daily basis
Thanks for the giveaway

I like medium sized bags. Not those huge floppy bags some people carry around, just a medium floppy bag.
I'm a follower!
What an amazing bag! I usually gravitate towards large-ish bags that can be worn over the shoulder with enough room for all of my necessities and one or two books.
I have this same pattern--just finished making a brown and burnt orange Ty Pennington decor fabric for my mom's birthday--- Love this!
My bag is made from another pattern but with these same dewberry fabrics... love the sparrow and damask!
I'm a follower and love the bag!! Thanks for hosting a giveaway!
I like mid-size bags. Not really any special style.
That is a beautiful bag. I currently carry a medium tote that is in desperate need of replacement. thank you for the chance to win

I love med-large bags that can hold a lot of stuff and have convertable straps. I also love lots of organization and pockets!
My recent favorite is the Vinings bag by chauwall (on etsy: http://www.etsy.com/listing/86934495/pdf-pattern-large-vinings-bag )
This bag is beautiful!
I like bags with a strap that can go crossed over my chest, especially when travelling. Not toooo big so I can avoid my tendency to overfill!
I love bigger cross body bags. The one in the pic is awesome! Thanks for the chance to win :)
At the moment I love computer bags because the only time I really leave the house for an extended period of time is to go write and I need to haul my laptop along (I lead an extremely exciting life as you can see).
Thanks for the chance! I adore this bag!
Love big bags, the bigger the better and pockets, lots of pockets. Thanks for the chance on this Great bag!
I already follow you! Thanks!
I love medium size bags with big openings so I can see everything inside. I also like a shorter strap that I can wear over my shoulder or over my arm.
I love anything big enough to carry diapers and cheerios :P
I love a good tote bag with several pockets. Anything that is easy to get into, holds lots of diapers, but doesn't look like a diaper bag really!
rebecca342 at gmail dot com
I am horrible at this female thing. I don't have a favorite bag type, I just kinda play with everything in a store, or browse the web forever and eventually go 'THAT ONE!'
Tend toward smallish, though. Yeah, thats about the only constant.
I like a medium sized bag with plenty of pockets! :)
This is a stunning bag. I love bags that have lots of pockets and are about medium size :)
I follow your blog :)

I like cross-body bags that are not too big... I need to have 2 hands available at all times to deal with my kids. This bag is great! Thanks for a chance to win!
I love big bags with some detailing. Right now I'm using this pattern http://www.warehousefabricsinc.com/blog/pleated-lined-handbag/
I love large bags, because I have 7 kids and always a lot of things to carry - but the bags have to have a lot of pockets :)
I am following.
LOVE YOUR BAG!
LOVE THE BIRDS!
I REALLY LIKE LARGE BAGS WITH MANY POCKETS! THANKS FOR SHARING!
MERRY CHRISTMAS ♥

MERRY CHRISTMAS ♥
I love messenger bags
I love this bag! this is the kind of bag I like!
I'm a follower, thanks for the chance!
I like mid-sized bags--big enough to stick a diaper or so in, not so big you feel like you're lugging around a horse... Your bag is gorgeous!
I love big wide bags, I can't get enough
I love this bag! It has all my favorite things. The colors are great and the style is perfect for me! I like single strap shoulder bags with pockets and snap or zipper closings. An outside pocket for cell phone/keys and big enough to hold all the stuff I haul around with me. I would be thrilled to win this bag!!
I cannot choose a favorite type of bag, I love them all. (but I guess large tote bags with cool details, if I had to choose!) Thanks for the chance to win!
steeplechaser29 (at) yahoo (dot) com
Yeah...extra chance because I'm a follower!
Big enough to fit a book, small enough to not become the bag filled with everything under the sun :)
I love this pattern ! What is it ? I've seen it a couple times and love it. And with this fabric, it's a perfect match !
So cute! I like any kind of shoulder bag with lots of pockets and big enough for all my stuff.
I really love my Birdie Sling, although my needs are changing and the bag seems bigger and bigger. I also really enjoyed Horner's Multitasker Tote pattern.

I love a good tote bag. www.melindajanedesigns.com
i love these 241 totes! haven't made any (yet) myself and i'd love to win this gorgeous one. if you're interested in making a smaller bag, i have a tutorial and free pattern (the madeleine bag) on my blog. oh, and a giveaway today too if you're interested :)

Big bags are the best...hold everything, lose your keys bags ...yes! This bag is fabulous!
I'm a girl of extremes - - I either want a huge bag or a tiny one. I'm also a big fan of adjustable straps.
Thanks for the chance!
Beautiful! I like a medium bag with lots of pockets. Thanks for the chance!
I don't really have a favorite kind of bag, except I know that homemade tends to top the list. I love everything from just barely big enough to hold keys and cards, to enormous enough to hold diapers for the tot and changes of clothes for the potty trainee and whatever else I can stuff in, and all sizes in between.
I love a soft, slouchy market tote. Great for library books, trips to the store, etc.
Thanks for the opportunity to enter! Great blog!
I like a smaller bag for looks, but I find myself gravitating towards bigger bags lately. I guess I need the space? Definitely need a strap long enough to hang on my shoulder!
Wow, that bag is lovely!
I have a bit of a bag addiction, any will do really :)
I love a big bag that will fit lots of stuff-with 3 kids there is always stuff!
Amy

I love a bag across my body, with just enough space for my wallet, 3 diapers & some wipes, plus a small snack and a drink. I also really like it to have a fold over flap on the top so that if I have to throw it somewhere quickly, the contents are less likely to spill out.
The bag you're giving away is amazing, the fabric choices are so nice!
I LOVE that bird fabric!! I am not a "big bag" type of person usually. I like smaller bags now that I don't have to tote around a bunch of baby stuff!
I love bags with enough pockets to store all my stuff in. Love the bag you've made for this giveaway! :O)
estrella8888 at roadrunner dot com
I am in LOVE with this bag! I love cross-bodys or hobo bags!
Thank you for the opportunity to win your giveaway! Happy Holidays to you and your family <3 xo
krencamp (at) gmail (dot) com
I love big bags that zip closed.
I follow you.
I like bags with pockets. I like bags that are spacious inside but not humungous. Bags with some sort of closure are nice,my stuff feels safer. I would like a bag that would hold a couple water bottles, a camera, cell phone, wallet, and small wipe cloth. Hmm, the 241 tote looks perfect :)
I'm a loyal follower. Happy holidays!
I love big messenger bags or small messenger bags!
I follow you using Google Reader :)
I love cross-body bags and with light colors in the interior - to make it easier to find things! :)
I love any bag large enough to double as a purse and diaper bag. :)
Love this bag!
I'm a follower.
Oh wow - what a bag! I absolutely love it.
My favourite pattern to make is a simple tote. Not very challenging and I can knock out a gift for someone with a stolen hour in my craft room - time well spent :)
Thank you for a great giveaway - all three of them :)

What a great bag! I love big bags with a magnetic snap... I'm too lazy to zip my bags closed, but like them to be able to close for a little added security. :)
I've been a follower for some time now! :)
That is a great rendering of that pattern! Love it!
Following via Google Reader!
I love a bag that has compartments for my various items.
I really like the med-large bags that go accross the body, but I like clutches and shoulder bags...oh qait that means I like them all! LOL. A new pattern that I just got was the Candice bag from lazy Girl designs. Nice size with lots of pockets!
http://www.lazygirldesigns.com/products/item/Candice/306/c50
I love this bag because it has orange in it (my infatuation colour right now) I hope to win!
Also, now following by RSS feed. :)
I'm really not picky about the style. It just has to be big enough to hold the one million things I carry with me on a daily basis that I simply can't do without.
I follow through my google reader! Thanks!
I love messenger bags - I'm in process of making 3 for christmas gifts.
I'm following your blog.
Medium-sized crossbody bags are my favorites :)
I love hipster type bags, especially cross body. I have a 5 year old so I still do handholding duty in parking lots; cross body makes it easier to deal with him and stuff!
I like medium-sized totes...and I love outside pockets for easy access to sunglasses or keys. Thanks for the chance!

My favortie bags are always at least 12 inches deep and 12 inches wide... Room for lots of little bags inside and deep enough that if I dont zip it it all stays inside
I love across the body bags this one is exceptionally beautiful!!
nancebagance at yahoo dot ca
LOVE this bag! This is just my style, actually. I like hobo or slouchy bags. And, cute, cute fabric is a must. I am always trying to get cute pattern ideas when I am out and about!
I like a shoulder bag (like to have my hands free) it has to be big enough to carry around all my junk! Linda
I am one of you stalkers....Linda
What a cute bag!! I love big bags - slouch, hobo, cross-body messenger...
Love this bag! I love all bags - but especially ones that will fit all of my daughter's stuff in it!
I like the smaller bags but with a toddler and a new baby on the way I'm leaning toward larger bags these days. Love this one!!

My favorite style of bag is a larger one with a zipper closure.
