Tote bag for the beaches of Greece

May 29, 2013 8 Comments

This tote bag will travel to Greece, with my youngest sister, Nico.
I used the largest version of my Danielle pattern, but I reduced the pattern to 90%; Nico did not want a too large bag.

Fabric used is from the Wrenly collection by Valori Wells

I made it with the heavyweight Decovil interfacing and I LOVE it.

When I will have more time I will try to compare the bag made with Decovil with the ones made with Peltex and Timtex and talk more about the Decovil.

Now I want to stitch other things for Nico. Let’s see what I can make in 2 days.

A sun hat, a travel bag or a small messenger bag ?
pattern-available

Happy sewing!
