I have been working on tote bags using cloth I make.
And while I love the fabrics and the looks of this one and another one I made from discharged black cotton, the price may be prohibitive for some. I wanted to find a way to make something with a lower price tag. Sooooo….I purchased some canvas tote bags (yeah, I know I’m cheating a bit) and created pockets for them from my cloth. I always like having an outside pocket on whatever I’m carrying so I can throw my keys in there and keep them within easy reach. I thought others might too.
What a great idea using purchased bags. I’ve not seen the colored ones before. Your fabric choices to coordinate with them are perfect!
Hi Susan, Yes, I thought they turned out quite cute! These purchased bags are a bit smaller, but we’ll see how they sell.
