I didn't really use a pattern. Started with a piece of muslin for foundation and then cut center piece so it is 5 sided. The black strips are 3/4". Just do "flip and stitch". Did one round of black then one round of scraps. When it covered the muslin I trimmed it and added fabric for the rest of the tote. One thing I did on this bag that really worked was cutting 2 pieces of fusible decor bond the size of the bottom. Fused them on top of each other and they made a nice heavy/stiff bag bottom. Think I'll be using that more often.
Thanks for all the compliments. For those who have asked, the pattern name is, I think, on page 2 of the comments.
