I love these totes and they make such a personal and practical gift. I always worry about teachers ending up with 20 boxes of chocolates. It's so much nicer to make something they would really use.Katie Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08314743496161353695noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-34645902835594969412011-12-11T17:00:54.853-06:002011-12-11T17:00:54.853-06:00These bags look great!

I know what you mean by an extra line from attaching the straps to the bag, but I don't quite understand way you mean by the sew line from the inner and outer bags. I did a later tutorial that shows how I attach the lining (inner bag) to the outer bag with only one stitching line at the top. Here is the tutorial (see specifically step 19):<br /><br />http://sewmamasew.com/blog2/2011/05/wallet-to-tote-on-the-go-tutorial/LiErhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13022645291278425282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-21825562976282418322011-11-12T10:06:15.622-06:002011-11-12T10:06:15.622-06:00Hi LiEr,

I am amateur in sewing and finally plucked the courage to try some interfacing with bags. I must say your workmanship is fabulous! Can you share how your bag only has one sew line at the top? Mine was kind of messy with two sew lines (one was the seam allowance of the inner and outer bags sewn line, the other was the last sew line to assemble the strap) at the top after assembly the straps to the bag. And yes i did not leave a hole for turning eveything out. I hope to get around it and improve! Thanks again!<br />LynnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-40354262828245510462011-03-09T19:27:44.068-06:002011-03-09T19:27:44.068-06:00Thank you for posting your pattern.

I am also lucky enough to have an embroidery machine so I'm personalizing with names too! I used to make totes from my own pattern with an additional bottom and side pieces but this is so much easier! And yes, you are right - it's much easier to make a bunch at a time!

Maybe I should try to sew one of those ... at least there would not be a problem if I make them slightly too small or too big ... :-)Ms Muffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16419580728085716299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4540761711646097949.post-280023847672938422009-05-16T10:38:00.000-05:002009-05-16T10:38:00.000-05:00Great post.

I'm especially glad you mentioned two things: <br /><br />1) grandma has yellow cheeks; I thought the poor woman had four eyes! : )<br /><br />2) purse that looked nice and crisp after initial sewing looked limp a few years later.
