Damask Tote Bag

One of my friends wanted a really big ‘ol tote bag.  She ordered and I delivered … A huge black and white damask tote bag with a monogrammed “K”.  This is by far, the largest tote bag that I have ever made. I have to admit, it was little challenging due to the size.  I didn’t use a pattern and we all know that I stink at tutorials.

    Hi, I was wondering if I can talk you into adding the email signup feature on your blog? That way I can't miss any of your posts.

    Thanks so much

    Hey! Okay I know exactly what you mean about tutorials! They're hard! I do have a question though, what did you use as inter lining or to stiffen the tote? Just curious! Thank you!

    Oh I'm a nut with tutorials. Meaning I can't follow them and they never work. You should have seen my trying to follow a basic tutorial for a drawstring bag. I felt ridiculously inept! Back to you, though... that is FABULOUS! I love the print and the style and everything about it! Off to check out your Etsy shop...
