This is the professional tote that my 11 year old granddaughter made. We are going to enter it in the fair tomorrow. Didn't she do a great job?

it looks like a Laurel Burch fabric to me.



really cute tote by the way! i have the pattern, but it looks complicated...did it take long to make?

I would say she done a wonderful job

Tweety2911 08-15-2013 06:09 PM

She is beautiful and so is her bag! Terrific job young lady!!! Sure to win a ribbon at the fair!!

YukonViv 08-15-2013 06:45 PM

What a great job!
Be sure to tell her for me that I made this bag too. It took me forever and I ended up taking it to a quilting retreat and had my quilting friends cheering me on every time I reached the next #.

#18 done (cheers and hollers)

When I eventually finished it I gave it to my sister as a birthday gift and swore never to make another.

I am so impressed she made this bag...and I'm humbled by how young she is...wow! If she makes another I don't think I could handle knowing it LOL.

Great job!! Best of luck at the fair.

nanacc 08-15-2013 06:51 PM

It is Laurel Burch fabric - pulled from my stash, line is called Felines & Canines. All the fabric has been discontinued so I cherish my stash. She is a real worker - she came up on a Tuesday, she sewed from 7:30 am til 11:30, we took a break for lunch about 11:30 and she was back to work at 12:00 and stopped about 5:00. Then she came back on Thursday and worked for another 4-5 hours and she was done. The instructions are very clear - just do it in exactly the sequence the pattern goes in - don't second guess any steps. Be sure you have everything you need for the bag so you don't have to stop and run to the store. The only thing we do differently is to fuse the interfacing to the fabric before cutting - that saves a lot of hassle for me. Don't let the 13-14 pages of instructions intimidate you - do one step at a time. Will keep you posted about the fair.

OMG! That pattern from long time sewers said was difficult! She's amazing to have tackled that bag. I hope she wins a "Grand Champion" ribbon.

redquilter 08-16-2013 11:41 AM

She should be a model she's that pretty. She did a beautiful job on the tote. Love the fabrics. Good luck to her. I'd give it first prize!
