Default re purposing a blouse into a tote bag

this was a blouse no longer worn. Cut off top under sleeves,straight across across, -buttoned up, and top stitched the opening all the way down. Sew across the bottom, hem the top ,added handles , took less than an hour to make. and love my new bag!

Now that is really creative - makes me want to rush to my closet and see if I have a blouse I can do this to - or head to the thrift store.

Thank you for sharing.
