This was more a sick day than a snow day, but Grace and I put it to good use. I saw some cute tote bags at Target and thought it would be fun to make one, so I got some denim, felt and "notions" (read: ricrac, ribbon, and appliques) and we made a little tote bag. We used fabric we already had for the lining, and the purple trim and lining kind of tie in with the butterflies... I have trouble with predicting the order in which things should be sewn, so there are a few rough edges, but all in all it's a fun and very sturdy little bag. Maybe that gentle reminder phone call from the library will inspire Grace to keep her library books in the new bag!
