    Here's a larger tote bag I made for my SIL. I used the Bow Tuck pattern and made it bigger and deeper. I also added a couple of ladybug buttons to the flowers & pocket. :)

    My stepdaughter asked for something like this the other day. She wants a lot of pockets inside. Hope mine will look as nice as your does.

    Here's a picture of the inside. This is done exactly per the Bow Tuck instructions.

    Someone asked me this before too, but I don't know how to figure out what the finished size it. I cut the lining fabric and outside pieces 20" square. How do I figure it out?

    Cute! One of these days, I might have to get that pattern. My purse is getting smaller and smaller!

    Mine too. I thought once my kids got older, I'd have less to carry. I made this one for my SIL. She's getting tired of carrying her lunch to work in a Walmart grocery bag.
