Maker’s tote bag – for crafters
|Hello gorgeous! We admit we’ve not made up this one yet at Sew Modern Bags but it’s on our to-do list for sure. This pattern from Noodlehead comes in two sizes and is designed as a Maker’s Tote. Ideal for crafters of any kind, carry your sewing supplies, knitting project or even art supplies.
This bag comes in two sizes and we think the larger size could also work as a smart diaper bag and the smaller one would make a great purse. A modern spin on the traditional doctor’s bag, but no frame is needed, just your regular bag making supplies.
