Default Tote bag

I just finished this cute tote bag. You can find the pattern at http://www.craftandfabriclinks.com/totebag/totebag.html

I quilted my own fabric and made my own binding. I also embroidered the dragonfly's on it with my Bernina 180 Artista. The pattern directions were a little difficult to follow but I think it came out okay. I am just learning how to embroider with my (new to me) machine and wish I had placed the dragonfly's a little higher. Oh well, practice makes perfect right? LOL! Enjoy!

Love the spark the dragon flies add to the tote. You did a fine job and they would make a great gift for anyone too.

I think the dragonflies are in the perfect place. If they were higher, they wouldn't show when you have it on your shoulder, right? The quilting makes this bag so durable, nice work!
