Jill, I was wondering if you have gone to see Frankie at the floral shop there in Ramona? You never know, she might be able to sell your bags locally. You do such beautiful work on them.

Love the bags! What stabilizer do you use to give the nice sturdiness to your bags?

Haven't met her yet, but DH was in and bought me roses for Valentine's day and he said a man helped him. Thanks for the idea-I might pop in to check it out!

Those two I used fusible fleece (987) on both the outside and lining fabrics, which seemed to work. They aren't stiff, but still have soft body. Normally, I just use 987 on the outside, and nothing on the lining-except light weight fusible on the pockets inside.

I love them, I would love to try to make a tote one day.

The owners of this resort are friends of ours in Vanuatu and she has purchased 4 purses from me already. They want totes instead of purses for their gift shop. I am going back in April so will take them with me. In the meantime, I send them photos as I make them.
Jill, I just bought the pattern for the Tahoe Tote yesterday! I really thought it had a zipper up top....i don't think I see one in yours...did you leave it out? just wondering. The bags are beautiful! I am so very tired of my old tote pattern so I just bought this pattern on a whim and was so excited to see someone else had already made it! Thanks for posting your pics.

Your attention to detail (twin needle on top rim and handle and heirloom stitch on the other seams) really takes this bag from being cute to being extremely well made...a lesson that every needs to learn how to use their edge joiner foot. Well done!
