I have used the leftover Bonnie and Camille HST trimmed from sewing my Spell it with Moda quilt letters (as well as a few from my Thirty Shades of Fox quilt) to join up for these panels.
Then it was just a matter of adding some fabric to make the panel up to the required size.
The zip used is a separating one so that the tote opens right up for easy access and there are also a couple of pockets for storage.
I made a little EPP hexagon from some more fabric scraps to use for the zipper tab.
oh this turned out great! I really need to get back to mine! I'd love for you to tell me more about your experience making this tote...
ReplyDeleteIt's really pretty. A perfect pattern for left overs!
ReplyDeleteJust saw this on the FAL FB page - it's gorgeous! You're getting me somewhat addicted to noodelhead! Congrats on your FAL finish.
ReplyDeleteI love this so much! I really need to get this pattern out and make one for myself. :)

ReplyDeleteFound you on Scraptastic Tuesday. The HSTs are beautiful but then you put them together and made it even more beautiful. Useful too!!! Love it.

ReplyDeleteI really love your scrappy Maker's Tote! The colors are great together and will be a nice reminder of the quilt. I'm going to check out that pattern now!
ReplyDeleteJust checked out that pattern and I really like your version so much better than the original. (don't tell Anna!)
ReplyDeleteI love the way this turned out! I have considered making this bag... I might have to give it a go! :)

ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous Kirsten! I need to make one of these, it looks so practical. Thanks for participating in the 2016 FAL on behalf of the global hosts!
