I made this bag yesterday using a very nice pattern - the 241 Tote Pattern - found here: http://www.noodle-head.com/2011/03/2...e-pattern.html

I love the lines of this bag and I'd been saving this fabric (I won it, thanks to all of you who voted for my quilt in the contest I entered a few months ago) for the perfect project, and this was it! The fabric is from the Nicey Jane collection by Heather Bailey and I paired it with a Kona solid (in Taragon) and some natural linen). The only adjustment I made was to lengthen the strap a few inches.

Thanks for looking :D

very nice love the bag too

Beautiful!
I love it!

What kind of machine do you have?
I've never seen the love stitch before :thumbup:

You did a great job with this! Love the spring color fabrics. :)

Beautiful bag. I make a lot of tote bags and purses.

My husband just bought me a Janome Horizon 7700. It's my Mother's Day, Christmas, Birthday, and Anniversary present for about the next 5-7 years :lol:

Oh, now this is a bag I really like!!! I'll have to look up this pattern. I love the colors you chose! Thanks for sharing!

I love your bag! I actually had to show your post to a friend of mine - who happens to BE Noodle-head. I thought it would be neat for her to see how someone made one of her bags and to read the feedback.

the colors are sooo soothing, love the LOVE

That is so exciting!!! I added the photos to her Flickr group too - so glad she got to see it! It's a fantastic pattern - I'm so glad I bought it! :D
