Gifts

I seem to be in gift making mode. My DIL had sent me upholstery fabrics-hard to find something to do with the small pieces of heavier fabrics, but they do make good totes. I topstitch all the seams open and down and box the bottoms. The boxing then determines where the edge stitching goes to make a more structured tote.

Great gifts too! I have been using totes that I accumulated over the years to bring groceries home in.

IMHO you can never have too many totes ~lol.

These totes are great! I agree, you can't have too many totes. I've gotten in the habit of always taking my own tote bags to the store with me so I don't bring home anymore paper or plastic ones.
