The fabric for this tote was made from some leftover scrap fabric purchased at Portland’s Fabric Depot. I can’t locate the name of the fabric or the designer (embarrassed…I accidentally cut off the selvage on the fabric, so the name isn’t known) – but it was from a coffee-themed fabric. Very bold and colorful patterns, filled with swirls and seemed to be a perfect match for this very pattern.
One particular feature that I really like about this bag is the little glittery rhinestones that I placed on the bag. You can’t see them in the photographs really well, but you might be able to make them out if you zoom in close enough. They add just enough sparkle and elegance to make the bag a little on the dressier side.
This tote will soon be available for sale on Etsy.
Here are some images of the bag:
The design for this tote was based upon Vogue’s Pattern No. 8375 – Crazy Quilt Handbag
