This week has been a week of mini projects. Dan and I both got on a sewing kick (yes, my husband sews...probably better than myself).
I'm pretty proud that I quickly found this fabric and I wasn't too indecisive with my decision to make this cute tote bag. It did take me about 5 hrs, which is far longer than it should have. But I haven't sewn since I made these curtains in February. Most of that time was spent yelling at my sewing machine or trying to figure out how to sew the lining/strap in. I used a tutorial/pattern from a fun sewing website called thimble. The pocket was also super easy and based off of this.
I love the silky teal blue liner.
I plan to make another small version of the bag (it's actually quite big!) and move my pocket up higher (it is a little low for my liking). I'm hoping it will only take 2-3 hrs next time.
The total cost was probably ~$10-$12.
