Making good use of scraps leftover from a sampler quilt (which still needs quilting, sigh). During a recent visit I saw that my daughter had loved the tote that I made her 4 years ago into oblivion. She was still using the tattered tote, don't you all just love it when our gifted handicrafts are put to good use?

Pretty. Yes, I love it when my gifts are used and not just put aside. Then I can make another one to replace the old one when it is tattered and worn out.

Great job! I use my tote everyday to make sure I have all the essentials that I don't want to carry in my purse.
I love yours as is much prettier than mine. What a terrific use of scraps. Thinking of Xmas this morning with 6 quilts to finish but I would love to make some pretty totes. Thank you.
