Look What I Made

October 6th, 2008 at 11:09 pm

I made this tote bag for my older daughter. I'm just excited to have made something with my own two hands.



I spent exactly $9.00 for 1/2 yard each of two cotton fabrics, 1 yard of cotton flannel for facing and a spool of thread. All the fabric was on sale and I had a 40% coupon off the thread. Of course, there is still some smaller pieces of fabric leftover and more flannel for another tote bag. Not to bad in the cost department.

    Very cute! My grandmother taught me how to make a few purses, and I have to say she has GREAT luck selling them. You should try yours on Etsy.

    Thanks for all the positive feedback! I'm not quite ready to start selling, but I will sure keep it in mind. I have a few other items I'm going to attempt to make. I will keep you updated.

    Very nice. I agree with the others, it looks like a very saleable item.

    CUTE! there are alot of folks selling similar items, beware! I sold some messenger bags at the summer farmers market (I made about 12, sold 2 so far), so proceed with caution!
