    Default New Tote Bag....

    Someone tell me this doesn't look like a diaper bag! (Lie if you have to...)

    I made so many mistakes on this and started it out using a vinyl that was way too light...I feel like I made it twice.
    It turned out well, but then someone made the above comment and I can't un-see it!
    I made it specifically to be my "personal bag" on the flight to Portugal this summer, as it fits within the measurements.
    It has the same pockets inside that are on the back and feet on the bottom. I learned how to do the over lay pockets and the twist lock, which wasn't hard at all and my good, old Janome powered through all that vinyl, fabric and interfacing like butter!

    Wow! Very nice. It looks designer to me and I'm telling the truth.

    That is very nice, and I love the fabric, but I do not think it looks like a diaper bag. Thank you for sharing

    Very high-end looking.

    As far as looking like a diaper bag - it does not - but I think some diaper bags look very useful.

    I love your fabric choices. I love it and looked at pics before reading... diaper bag never entered my mind!

    Had I seen the pic before reading the post, I would have thought "designer tote".
    It doesn't resemble any diaper bag I've ever seen. Kudos for your perseverance; it turned out great. Bon voyage!

    I don't think it looks at all like a diaper bag. It looks amazing. It definitely looks like a high end bag. You did great work and I love your fabrics.
