Today I am 40 weeks, 1 day. Overdue. Overdue also to blog something. That baby being late is not so bad after all, because I crossed more projects off my to-sew-list than I thought. And sneaked some new ones in, too. Like this happy summer tote. It makes me smile every time I look at it: a new bag, stripes, red, yellow, turquoise.
It's made from the leftovers of IKEA Vitaminer cotton fabric that I bought for the kid's room curtains (not that I've made curtains yet, I just cut the fabric so I would have leftovers to make this bag...) Oh and YES, I felt the need for a new TOTE arise after checking out
Dana's series on
TOTE bags.

| and the inside...lined and with pockets. (Technically "reversible" but who would want to hide the stripes?) |
|
 |
| I added a pocket on the outside, too. |
 |
| It's boxed out. |
 |
| orange kisses turquoise? Yes. please!. |
