I like the Tiki Tote from Angela Walters. There is a video on her Midnight Quilter's show and here is the pattern.

This was a fun bag to make. I did change the pattern a little, making the bag a bit taller, so that there was more sky. I made one side 'Day' and the other 'Night'. Here is a link to the pattern. https://windhamfabrics.net/images/pr...wHouseTote.pdf

There is one thing I would change on the pattern. The template and directions for making the roof pieces is more difficult than it needs to be. I would paper piece them.

Sorry no pattern, but my favorite tote I made and donated to Diabetic kids silent auction charity in honor of my diseased neighbor and friend Kitty.
This was made from the grape fabric she gave me and some I had on hand.
It went for $95.00 to a judge here in town.

All adorable totes!!

I love the Clydebank tote from Sew Sweetness. I don’t have the picture since I gifted it and forgot but here is the link. This chick rocks on bags.. very creative... She has a bunch of tutorials, too.

GingerK Your house tote reminds me of the Stay at home orders we have had during 2020. I love the creative way you made 1 side day and the other night. I would like to try this pattern with Christmas fabric!

Wonderful talent on the board. Thanks for sharing.

I love zippered bags!
free pattern
The second bag was made from a t-shirt!
The pouch with my name is stitched with matchstick stitching, and the name is the negative space! Super simple to sew into pouch.
