Thank you for all the wonderful comments. I saw many wonderful photos of Bow Tucks Totes on this message board which inspired me to buy the pattern and give it a shot. I love them as much in person as in the photos I saw!
To answer a few questions:
The pattern is "Bow Tucks Tote" pattern by Quilts Illustrated and is available online through many web-sites.
Someone asked if it was difficult to make. I am a beginning sewer, and would rate it as medium difficulty. There is a tutorial here in the quilting board and on a couple other web-sites that helped tremendously. It took me quite a while to make, but a second one should go much faster.
Someone else asked me if I am addicted yet..... YES, completely. I already have 3 more to make (my other daughter, my mom and myself). I'm guessing more will follow.
Thanks again for all the nice comments. It's fun to share projects with others with the same passion for creating out of fabrics.
