I needed a new springy tote for church. I really should call it the
Mom-do-you-have-a-pen tote. Or maybe the
Mom-do-you-have-a-tissue tote. Or even the
Mom-do-you-have-any-lotion tote. Or perhaps the
Mom-can-I-have-a-piece-of-gum tote. Oh, and
Mom-can-I-stick-my-trash-in-your-bag tote. Because that's what
my tote holds. It holds the pens. And crayons. And small activity books. The lotion. The tissues. The trash. And two of
my church books.

I subscribe to a sewing blog that rounds up tutorials and I saw
this one the other day. I realized I had everything on hand, so I whipped one up.

I do wish I would have used the wide eyelet lace on the bottom. And I wish I had enough to go completely around the bag, instead of piecing it together with eyelet lace of a different width. Oh well. I'll use it for a few months and move on anyway.

Sounds like we have lots in common. And yes, everyone else's six always looks like more than mine...why is that?
Glad to meet you!
Have a blessed Resurrection Celebration!
