Here are a couple of photos, but it's early in the morning and the lighting isn't that great. The colors are "cheerier" in person. :mrgreen: I chose 30's (repro) fabrics because they remind me of the quilts my great-grandmother made. I inherited a bunch of her quilts, and they're very dear to me. I forgot to snap a photo of the inside, but it's lined with a yellow 30's print. The back side has a divided pocket.
Do y'all think it'll be okay?

I tried to put mine in the post today, but I just couldn't get usps.com to talk to my printer.
I like seeing all the creativity that has gone into making these tote bags. They are all so pretty, and makes me think "why didn't I think of that?"
