Totally Totes

I am a long time member of "Quilting With Us" (QWU). I used to give virtual workshops here. Like many others, I have ventured out as QWU became more quiet.

We are getting the warning that QWU is at risk of being disabled. I fear this is a sign that QWU will one day be no more.

It has become like family here and the thought of losing the friendships we have developed has giving me a sad heart. Like many dark clouds, there is a silver lining. When I ventured out, I created a quilters social network, much like QWU. I never mentioned it, for it was a conflict of interest. However, in this dark hour, it is time to let others know there is an alternative. It does not have to end here.

I would be honored for QWU members to join "Pattern Pastiche". If needed, we are more than happy to create a group for your new home.

I have not made a bag of tote for so long I cannot remember when.  This is a little Klucth  by Two Kwik Quilters.... I have to say I would not reccommend this pattern for a beginner because the instructions are very poorly written.  I am surprised this one turned out as well as it did the next one I make if I do, I will modify some of the steps to suit me.   It is the perfect size to carry your cellphone a small wallet or just put in a credit card or two and some cash and your keys .  It's roomy enough for all of that.

Carol, really like your tote bag.  I just cut out material to make 2 tote bags, will take pictures and post when I get them done.

Tote bag requested by my granddaughter as a gift for her Sunday School teacher.  Finished it last night.

This isn't a tote,  but a little change purse with a clear vinyl window for your driver license or ID card.  I keep my license in it and it attached to my keyring. When I need to run out for something quick I throw a few bills or a credit card inside, and I am ready to go. I am making up several for small gifts I may need.  Here is the link for the tutorial,  although I have made several practice pieces,  modifying the process to suit my sewing skills.  They are fun to make,  and the most times consuming part is getting that little window just right that houses the vinyl piece.  But manage to develop my own steps for that, after the first one didn't go together so well. http://thimbleanna.com/?p=566

It's been awhile since I posted anything, but now it is time to share a purse/small tote that I made from selvage strips.

It's great, Sherri.  She'll love it.

woo hoo it worked.  Also made a little zippered purse to hang inside on a clip,  and there is an outside pocket on the back.  Hope she likes it.

Going to try to post pic of the finished chevron bag I stitched for my GD to carry her Dance paraphenalia in.  She asked for it a couple of weeks ago, and I just didn't feel it,  but finished this am.
