    I posted a picture of this in another post that I had about making totes last, but wanted to show off a few pictures here too! I am awful proud of this, it's my second ever tote, made for my Mom.

    The only thing is I think the straps might be a little too wide...she wants to use it to carry library books back and forth so I wanted to make them "cushiony" so they don't dig into her arm when she carries it. What do you think?

    It is great! I need that pattern! The wide straps are part of the appeal.

    I'm sorry, I don't know how to change the title of this topic and I meant to call it - "my second ever tote" - lol* Not "a couple of totes"!
