About Among Brenda’s Quilts & Bags

About the Site

If you like sewing, especially bags or quilts, Among Brenda’s Quilts & Bags is a site you’ll want to come back to, over and over again. Brenda Miller designs patterns that help you create beautiful, functional handbags, specialty bags, quilts, home decor and more. These patterns are unique, well-illustrated, simple to follow, and fun to sew.

Also available are hardware kits and zippers. ABQ zippers have a special design feature that makes them easier to sew into bags. Find out more on our Recommended Resources page.

We serve businesses that purchase wholesale in our members-only area. It’s free to join, but you must be a representative of a sewing or quilting business. Inside, not only can you buy patterns, hardware kits, and zippers, there are also resources to help you serve your customers.

Along with creating patterns, Brenda teaches classes and holds trunk show presentations at shops and quilt guilds. She teaches other sewing enthusiasts how to make bags, in person and with online video classes. Find her story here.

Brenda started sewing early in her life, and before she found her own passion for bag and quilt design, she enjoyed making quilts from patterns other people had designed. Today her focus is creating bag designs.

She blogs regularly to share her sewing and teaching experiences, and sometimes to share other things she enjoys, such as gardening. Brenda’s blog.

There is always a place for you to unleash your own creativity at Among Brenda’s Quilts and Bags, so I’ll hope you’ll bookmark the site and subscribe to our newsletter.
