Summer Tote

One of the ladies that works for me has a birthday this week. This is the tote I came up with.
D is for Debbie. This is the 2nd ever attempt at applique. I think I will use a different stitch next time but it turned out OK. The pink polka dot is also the lining of the bag.
Button came from my Mom's stash when I was visiting her.
And a coordinating pouch bag. Of course had to use another one of the craigslist zippers.

  2. If you asked any of my friends, they all say I have an addiction to tote bags. This doesn't help curb my appetite for them! Looks great!

  5. Oh my goodness, that is the cutest bag I have ever seen. I wish I could do arts and crafts and sewing like that! Debbie is a very lucky woman to receive a gift like that! You did a beautiful job! And the matching pouch and everything! Too much, giggles, it's so wonderful!
