New Tote Bag
Linda H and I were given a nice piece of upholstery fabric last spring, we each kept half of it. I needed a larger tote bag to carry my crochet project, this fabric came in handy to make one. I roughly followed a YouTube tutorial on making a shopping bag with boxed corners and French seams. Mine isn't lined because the backside of the fabric is quite pretty and the fabric has a good weight to it. I didn't want to waste the interesting selvedge edge, so it became decorative trim at the top of the bag. It will hold several balls of yarn and an afghan in progress.
