Charity bag

This is the first of the totes I decided to make for charity. I haven't made another one yet as I have been making six placemats for a friend; they match the little criss-cross coasters I made for her for her birthday. Photo will follow when the light is better; it's rather dull today as it's snowing again.

    1. Thanks, Virna. It's a very basic bag, lined with an outside pocket but no interfacing; keeping costs down but useful. The outer fabric is pretty curtaining I was given and the lining is pale pink; the kind of bag you can just pick up and put some shopping in.

  2. Margaret, I love the tote! What fabric is it made of? Is it available in a store online?

    1. Thanks, Lenneke. Someone gave me a new curtain they did not need and that's the fabric. It is very nice quality and I love the pattern on it: it's called Spice Island but I have no idea where it came from or if it is still available - I doubt it, unfortunately.
