My new tote bag :o)


Tah - Dah! My new placemat tote bag! My camera doesn't do the color justice, but it's a pretty fall color! I have made several place mat totes from '1' placemat. The one above is made from '2' place mats sewn together. My scripture tote for my seminary edition quad is now just for my scriptures, minus lesson book, small hymnal ,etc. That has moved into the 'bigger'tote and my small scripture tote inside it! :o)


Side view. I added trim and ribbon. The trim covers the straps.

Bottom of the tote.



Straps for tote made from grograin (sp?) ribbon. I used my sewing machine to add the decoration on ribbon.

Very nice mom! It seems like the perfect size. Oh and I think it's spelled grosgrain, the only reason I know that is because that makes me think it should be pronounced gross grain:)
