Thanks...I am really trying to use up fabrics I no longer want to use in quilts and this is ideal way to do that ..and make Christmas gifts early!

I am making them for gifts...will be nice to have so many things made up so early and also to use up so many fabrics I don't want anymore for quilts..

What pattern did you use for this bag? Or do you have a tutorial for it?

I used the same pattern as the SNAP BAG that I made so many of from the free tutorial on line and just made them larger..the sizes vary a little because it depends on the size of the piece of fabric I had to use but most are about 13 x 15" or so

This week we are visiting family and all six of my husbands family are here so I gave the the totes and they seemed to love them..I was so pleased...even one who didn't think she wanted one changed her mind as she thought they were nicer than some she has so will replace one....they r easy and fun to make
