Tote Bag

I have a friend who is an amazing photographer. She has done pics of Claire a couple of times now and they are always so wonderful.

See some of her work on her blog.

She recently did some one year pics of Claire. So I decided to make her a tote bag as a little thank you.



My thinking was that she could use it for a reusable grocery/shopping tote. I'm all about the reusable tote now. I hate those plastic bags. The only problem is that I feel a little silly carrying one into Target with 'Kroger' emblazoned on the front. Hence the need for a pretty green 'green' bag!

I didn't use a tutorial or pattern but I had read a bunch of different tote techniques online and then kind of made my own pattern.

I hope she likes it.
