I love your bag. I haven't gotten up enough nerve to try one of these yet. You did a super job! So many compartments. Nice!!!

There is a new pattern out now just like this, but much smaller. Designed by the same person. It's called a Mini Professional Tote. I just finished one. I LOVE it! Here's a pic of the size difference.

It's actually the perfect size for a purse. Big enough to hold everything I want to carry and small enough to deal with. I am truly loving mine. I put my sunglasses in the pocket on one side and a water bottle in the pocket of the other side. I am always struggling with what to do with my water bottle when I'm out and about and this took care of that problem. The center zipper pocket (which is quilted on the inside) holds my iPad Mini beautifully and I love that my cell phone fits in the smaller pocket on the purse front and all of my "stuff I need for today, but don't want to dig for" fits in the big pocket on the back side. Everything has a place. It's great.

Well done! Looks like a bag that will keep everything nicely organized.

Great job! I gotta have one!! From your description, I may have problems, but that is my kind of bag! Thank you so much for showing yours in such detail. It is beautiful!

Great bag. It looks like you have a pocket for everything. Love a bag with lots and lots of pockets. Well done.

It does look like the "just right" size for a med. size purse. Will definitely check it out when I go to the states in about a week! :) My sis is always looking for a BIG purse, so I'm thinking that this tote might be about right for her. I've already volunteered to give it to her--I'll use it to go over with and make something else for coming back with, probably. |
That's gorgeous. I've made several of these totes (3 for my sister because she uses them so much that she wears them out). When I finished my first one, I felt like if I could make this tote, could make anything--LOL. The 2nd one didn't go any faster but it was easier since I understood all the instructions now.

You did a great job, love the prints.
