Eco-Chic Shopping Tote

Yesterday I got the bug to sew something.  My 17 yr. old wanted to sew (yay!) and we decided to make these cute Shopping totes:
Ooooh, don't you just adore that fabric?  It is my favorite!  

I made this one and I can't wait to use it!  I think I just decided what I am making for Christmas gifts this year!

They are even reversible!  Look at that cuteness:)  My DD whipped out 3 yesterday.  I made 2.  She didn't want to stop!!

I am working on a tutorial for this bag.  I will post it soon.  It seriously took me 30-45 minutes to make.  I love a quick, easy project!

    Cute bag. I grew with a mom that sews and I never learned anything about sewing and I wish I had because now I find that I like it. The only thing I can do is cross stitch. :/

    Cute! My 13 year old got the bug to sew. Freaks me out, because my sewing machine scares the crap out of me! LOL. Anyway, I decided next week to conquer my fear and we've decided to make a purse. :)
