I participated in the Tote Bag Swap(I will add the Flicker link when it is up incase you are looking for bag inspiration) at One Hour Craft. Now that my partner has received her bag I can share. I received a large brown roomy tote. The fabric is so soft. A perfect tote for carrying around a project. My partner went above and beyond and totally spoiled me with tea, chocolate and lotions to pamper my feet! Her mother even knit me a wonderful scarf!
I sent this tote —
with a matching tissue holder.
The bag was made from Simplicity pattern 4670 view C.
It was a super easy pattern and went together very quickly. My only problem was finding the right sized handles—I couldn’t so those are 6″. If you want to make the bag the yardage given is for one fabric. If you want to use two fabrics you will need a 1/2 yard for the top and 3/8 of a yard for the bottom. The other yardage requirements were the same.
