I posted a pic of this quilt top earlier in the week.

Now here it is quilted,

The tote is for my daughters advisor on her doctorate committee and the bow tucks without the bows, is for her friend who is also graduating with her phd.

I love this tote pattern. I originally saw it in another post on this board.. thank you to whoever it was who made it first and posted. It takes a little skill, but boy does it ever turn out great!
Has pockets on all sides both inside and out...and the divided zipper pocket in the middle of the inside is a great touch. The pattern is called "The Professional Tote".

I made it with home dec fabric that I bought in California for $3 yd. I wish I was there now, I would get some more....

Enjoy!

Here is some more pics of the tote

and the bow tuck without the bows, plus zipper

Thats a beautiful job you did. I love it.

and she just told me she forgot someone.. so, one day left to make one more bow tucks.. out of these two fabrics

what do you think?

Very Nice I eally like it alot

great job, thanks for sharing

These are wonderful. What great gifts. Thank you for sharing.

Everyone should love such great gifts! Excellent job on all!

All of it is lovely. You do excelleant work!

Wow! Lovely projects!

great bags!

Love them & for the next one, I would go with the darker fabric. Light colors get soiled faster I think.

All are beautiful and your fabric choices will make another beauty. You did a great job on everything.

Good work. Like them.

And here is the last minute bow tucks...just needs a button
Sorry it is a little blurry, took it with my phone..

Thanks judy. Im a judy too. Im headed your way, leaving in about an hour. Going through the painted desert on the way.

Graduation is wednesday and back to kansas on friday.

So, in all the rush, I didnt get to make the graduate anything, so...
Im giving my dads 35mm camera and all the lenses, tele, wide angle, filters, etc. my dad died in 2007 of cancer. Daughter was out of the country and didnt get to visit him after he got sick, he only lived 6 weeks. I thought she might like this gift, what do you think.

All your projects are great. I think the graduate's gift will be treasured.
