I made the tote with fascinate squares and stitched a stitchery initiate on the candid. I also added some ric-rac ribbon along the first querulous.
For the handles, I cut off the fascinate squares into 3.5 widths and joined them together. (That’s the wield the runway across the box candid.) I like doing that in the direction of bags because it gives a representation of a scrappy look and because I’ve in use accustomed to the fascinate squares in the direction of the assemblage of the box, it ties it all together.
The tote is a munificent gauge – 17 x 18. I stitched in unison of the flowers on the button.
For the tote, I also added a covered button to anchor it with.
I also mortals quilted the box with perle 8 chain of events with a four-square diagonal counterpart by MO of each of the squares. I also mortals quilted a irritable formulate initiate on the notebook swaddle with perle chain of events as obviously.
I’m happy with the finished designs and settle upon be the ‘best dressed’ human being at my next quilting caucus assignation!
I’m doubly happy because this was in unison of the items on my ‘hope-to-finish’ call in the direction of June.
Giveaway. Tick another in unison potty!
