Mini Tote


I threw together this project late Monday night. I had the whole long weekend to work on it but instead I procrastinated until 8pm and then stayed up until 1am finishing this. My current bag is wearing through the fabric and because it has a gorgeous chicken on it I don't want to completely ruin it before I see if I can fix it so this is my new replacement bag.

I made it just the right size for me. It is about 10" x 8" with two zipper pockets. The main compartment is big enough for my purse and kindle while the outer zipper pocket fits my phone and the inner zipper is perfect for tucking away a spare shopping bag or small notebook. It fits everything I need to take with me perfectly and I don't have to rummage around in a larger bag anymore.

I'm glad to see you back in action! It's been quiet at your end. But this is a great bag. I've been doing a lot of waffling about making one for myself too, so I'm glad to see that you were able to overcome your procrastination and get it done! Hopefully you will inspire me too, lol.

Yeah I've been doing a heap of non sewing things instead. New role at work making me exhausted, gardening projects and cooking lots of new things like bread and jam. A lot of half finished things I haven't done enough on to show as well :)
