Anyone Have Quilted Bags From Merrill?

I was thinking of buying them...they're on special right now, but wasn't sure if I'd like it? Just wondering??

Do you mean the cranberry ones? I have the larger one and just love it. I have been so tempted to get the smaller one but so far have resisted.

I also was wondering, b/c they're cute...but I really need to limit my spending! :blushing:

I have the smaller, purse-sized one, and it is adorable! However, the closure ribbon on mine frayed even before I left the conference where I bought it so I don't tie it closed. The ribbon is just stuffed inside.

What are the dimentions of that purse? Would it fit inside the catalog tote bag? I've been carrying that lately. Is it more like a large wallet or a small purse?

Beth, it's like a small purse. I've been using mine (that I bought here!) as a purse for awhile & it's so cute. Fits just what I need; billfold, checkbooks, cell phone etc...not enough room to fit things I don't need!

I used to always carry that size of purse and loved that it never got cluttered (no room!). But does it fit inside the catalog tote?

 

[lacychef]

Yes, it would fit inside...depending on how full the catalog tote is

Well, it would have the purse and a plastic holder that contains mini-catalogs (so they stay nice). That would be about it most of the time.

I have the larger one and I just ordered it about 2 weeks ago and love it. Pretty sturdy and I use it to carry my school books and it works really well! I can fit two hardcover school books, a 1/2" binder and I put pencils in the zipper part and it even looks so cute when you tie the ribbon at the top! I loooove it - worth the $15.00!

I keep my mini catalogs in a travel wipes container inside my catalog tote, works out perfectlY!
