Totes
 

I am currently obsessed with totes!! I made my first one 2 weeks ago. I made 2 more this past weekend. Third one is the charm - that one I am currently using!

The first one I like (made with charm squares), but while I did use batting in it, it is floppy. I didn't add interfacing to the pockets I added to the inside, and I placed the pockets a little too high. I used leftover 100% cotton batting. I won't be using this one as my purse.

The second one has 6 pockets formed around the outside. It had a few problems, I am not wild over the colors, and it is a little bit too small for me. But I did use fusible batting in it, which I really like.

The third one - I really like this one!! Straps are a little long, but using fusible batting for the purse and Pellon 808 inside the pockets - works wonderfully. :o

You did a great job on all of them. I especially like the colors in the second one.

Pretty totes! I make mine all different sizes too.

Lovely bags. I also enjoy making bags.

They are all very nice...... hope you use them all as variety is the spice of life.

Nice work! I especially like the pink flowered one. Enjoy yourself, but don't burn out on one thing. Last year I made about 40 market totes with a few friends to sell at church craft sale. Enjoyed it, but had to switch to other stuff before it really got to me. This year I'm trying to be more varied in what I make for the sale.

Great totes!
