Libster your tote bag is just a beauty. I love every single thing about it, and really love all the pockets and the magnetic snap closing. Such beautiful colors inside and out. I adore the magnetic snaps. Jaba you are so so talented, and made a beautiful tote.

Linny, your tote is simpler than Jan's spectacular one, but I hope you like it! PO says it will arrive by the time you get home.

Have never made a tote. Is heavy interfacing hard to sew thru? Do you use a certain brand? Thanks for any info.

I didn't find the firm interfacing hard to sew through at all. I used Pellon brand iron-on in the mock-up that I made first for me. I used fusible fleece instead of the interfacing in the tote I made for Jaba. Both give body to the tote, just different feels.
