a kindle sized tote

I love this fabric! The print is so lively and elegant at the same time. I was surprised to find it in the JoAnn's in my home town while I was visiting my parents this summer. I don't see a lot of unique, quality options like this in the same stores out here.

I made this bag to test some pattern modifications I wanted to try for a small tote. Since it was experimental and made of scrap fabric, I gave it to a friend. She has been using it as her daily purse ever since. What a compliment! Her feedback has been valuable as well - next time I'll include inside pockets and something to close the top. Buttons? Yes!
