    Thanks for looking! I love paisley and bought this fabric at Hancock Fabrics. It is marked MBT but I don't know the name of the collection. The bottom green with the tiny paisley is also from Hancock. It is from the Fabri-Quilt Days of Wine and Roses collection. The lime green lining is from their FQ rack and has no selvedge so I don't know the manufacturer. The dark pink strip and inner pocket is made from a fabric I purchased at Wal-Mart.

    That's a great tote! What pattern did you use. I saw one similar to this one (but not as nice inside) the other day that sold for $14.99. I sure like this one.

    Thanks very much! I didn't use a pattern, just made it up using FQs. If you check my other post for Springtime Tote Bag there's a basic walkthrough there on how I did it. I will be selling these at a day spa where my DD works for about $50-$60 and also have some orders from a few of my friends and relatives. Considering the time it takes to make them and the cost of the material and notions I think this is a very fair price for a one-of-a kind bag and the clientele there are used to paying much more for accessories. Please feel free to PM me if you don't understand my explanation on the other post.

    Thanx for the other link too. I hadn't seen it, and I'm really interested in making one like this for a special gift.
