I am loving this pattern. I love that you use heavier fabric, so no need for lining. I love how fast and easy it comes together. (Still not on the SMS payroll!)
Anyway, the next night after making my first Classic Tote, I made two more! They are both a bit smaller than the original.
This is may be a teacher gift, but I am hurting looking at my bad sewing in this! It's a bit smaller than Irene's original because it was made from... curtains. Yes, another great find from Target's clearance rack, only $3.24. If I pick all the seams out for maximum yardage, I am hoping to get 3 more bags from this one set of curtains! I like the pencil pocket on the front.
Here is a bag for my three-year-old son. I was rummaging through the stash, thinking he wasn't paying attention, but when I pulled this fabric out, he said, "I want that one." Made over from a little curtain I had made to hide the cat box in our old house (yes, it's been thoroughly washed). This bag is quite a bit smaller, and the pocket is divided to hold four pencils.
Show us your bags!

These bags turned out very nice. Good work!!
Wonderful bag! Do you know where we could find a "basura bag" pattern or instructions? They're bags made out of juice boxes!! Would love to learn to make those and start a program with my kids school to collect those and turn them into something enviro friendly!
Thanks!
