Dual Duty Peek-A-Boo Reverse Applique Tote Bag free pattern
Here’s a great free sewing pattern and tutorial for the Dual Duty Peek-A-Boo Reverse Applique Tote Bag. The peek a boo elements allow fun feature fabrics to shine through what might otherwise be a plain tote bag.
Unlike traditional applique where the accent fabrics are placed on top of the base, reverse applique positions them underneath—in this case, under a faced edge.
Because this wonderful tote bag is soft, when you are not using it for shopping you can fold it up for easy storage, having it ready for your next shopping spree.
The Dual Duty Peek-A-Boo Reverse Applique Tote Bag is a perfect project for a beginner sewer. The pattern and tutorial were designed by Linda Turner Griepentrog.
