Plum Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 I've been busy making some bags while it's been so grim outside. So much fabric but it still seems to have multiplied. I would like to make some tote bags as gifts but not sure how big to make them. What do you reckon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Lovely bags Do you work from a pattern? For totes how about copying Omlet bag dimensions, if you have one to copy from Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ygerna Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I love those Hmm, now I feel the need to shop for a new bag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted February 21, 2011 Author Share Posted February 21, 2011 No Ygerna make one go to link I put up The handles on the Kaffe Fassett one were some I picked up at a patchwork shop ages ago but never used. I'd only got enough fabric in that design to do the bag. I did make the button, well covered an old one in fabric. Chuffed with that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
