I love love love this simple tote bag pattern. My guild makes dozens to have on hand in all sizes for donation quilts, gift bags, welcome goody bags, etc. I can whip one up for a gift bag in minutes. And it's lined. No seams show. It's easy to make any size you want from small and narrow to deep and wide.
