All day tote

For a friend I was visiting last week. I think she liked it.

All day tote from Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing made with 100% cotton canvas with 100% cotton African wax print lining.

Made it on another sewing date with a friend.

Remember the green grosgrain ribbon? And I didn't forget to put a label inside. See?

I have another tote ready cut for sewing but will sew it after I have Gerda serviced.

Thank you all for your kind well wishes on our trip. We had a fabulous time .

Now off to catching up with Google reader and getting back into swing of things. I will have some knitting updates soon.

I love it - the colours are just fabulous. This book has been on my wish list for months now. Even more of a reason to bump it up the list.
