Just curious. Did you use a certain fabric line? I always look at someone's project and want mine to look the same! Job well done.

What an awesome bag. I love totes, especially ones big enough to carry projects or supplies to a class. Thanks for posting the pattern.

WOW, great bag, I think you could carry a small child in there it's so large. Just kidding, but it looks like the perfect tote to carry all your beach items, including the blanket to sit on.

Your tote is so colorful and pretty.

I bought an inexpensive pack of 2 1/2" X 42" strips from Wal-Mart. I think I paid $10.95 for the pack of 24 strips and it's 100% cotton. The company that made the pack is Fabric Editions, Inc. The pack is called SLICES and the fabric is Exotic Batik Slices.

Thanks and enjoy!

I made this bag last week, it is huge! When I was cutting out the fabric I realized how big it was going to be. I was afraid the handles would not give enough support to the bottom of the bag. So, I used premade webbing from JoAnn's in a bright color and sewed it down the sides and on the bottom in one long piece. I'm short, so I made the handle short so the bag wouldn't drag on the floor as I carried it. I can still carry it as a shoulder bag also.
