Toss it in Tote Bag FREE sewing pattern
|This is the Toss it in Tote Bag FREE pdf sewing pattern from the designer I Always Pick The Thimble.
These fantastic Tote Bags have some great features. They have cotton belting handles, a side pleat, and a zipper-closed top. And so what is it that makes these Tote Bags look unique? It’s the cotton belting straps and the zipper detail. The designer has also used batting for stability. And if you wish you can use sew-in insulated fabric to make a lunch bag.
By adding a side pleat to these lovely bags you’ll end up with a bag that stands up on its own.
The designer says that if you want to make a cute make-up bag then just leave off the handles.
