Use this pattern to make a whole wardrobe of handy cloth totes for running errands, taking books to the library, carrying groceries home from your local Farmers' Market, or toting your kids' stuff to the beach. It's easy to make your own custom-quilted double-sided fabric using two favorite prints and following the directions provided in the pattern. The straps create divided outer pockets on both sides of the tote. A zippered inner security pocket makes it easy to organize everything inside and out. Rickrack trim is optional as well as a coin purse that drops down inside the tote for more safe storage for your cell phone, make -up, credit cards and cash. Yardage and directions are also included for making a lined (not quilted) tote using fashion fabrics such as denim, tapestry, or faux suede.

Fabric Requirements

• 1 5/8 yards for outside of the tote and the inner and outer pockets
• 3/4 yard for the tote inside fabric layer
• 1/2 yard contrasting print or sturdy woven fabric for the bottom contrast panel
