Winter house quilted bag with Windows prototype

I've never been that interested in sewing bags but after sewing the little darling bag yesterday (see previous post) other ideas started brewing.   I worked on this prototype and want to do a tutorial soon.  (I'm thinking a haunted house since October will be here before we know it!)

This turned out pretty cute but the next one I make will be a little wider.  You can see the little red house in the window reflection of the lower left window and I added the red dormer to the roof along with the red shutters to match that little red house.


I free motion quilted snowflakes on the snowy roof and on the sky parts of the bag, although the fabric does have a stylized snow flake print already.


It's lined with the scenic fabric


I have all these buttons to choose from to use as a door knob.  I'm leaning towards the heart or the yellow round button.  The yellow star is not a button so I'd have to glue it on if I used it and don't know what kind of glue would be good.   I like the tree but it's a little big and not door knobby at all (not that that really matters).
