Tote Bag Pattern

Hello beautiful people on the internet,

Have you always wanted to use your sewing machine more?

I have  heard this more than ever that I bought my sewing machine to do some patch up work but I haven’t used it once. Start with some small projects to get used to sewing and soon you will not be able to stay away from it.

I know that you are crafty and creative. Love amazing colors. This pattern doesn’t need you to have ninja skills of adding interfacing and lining. It works perfectly well if you are a beginner and is challenging enough to keep you interested.

Here is a super easy tote bag pattern. This is exactly how I make all my tote bags.

This downloadable pdf pattern has step by step instructions with pictures at each step. You can contact me at any time with questions and I will try my best to help you out.

This week has come with a lot of wonderful activities in the Nerdy House.

Please consider using reusable bags for your groceries. This New Year resolve to be ecofriendly. It is never a good idea to use a single time use plastic bag to carry your groceries from the car to you house. Use durable, reusable, pretty-looking bags. These are one time investments and can last a long time. Let the future generations learn from you to be kind to the environment. We can make a difference in our lifetime and help everyone around us.
