Burda Style For people who sew
Description
This tote is based on http://u-handbag.typepad.com/uhandblog/2010/08/free-bag-purse-pattern-for-pleats-sake-tote.html?cid=6a00d8341c574653ef01348694b59a970c
I added 3 pockets inside (because I think they’re very important in a bag :D
I used a blue and white stripe fabric on the outside, and a funky white and red fabric on the inside (it has ‘hello’ written in many languages)
I also used red leather straps (I actually got my fabrics based on this strap)
I’m probably gonna make this one again, but with a wider mouth so that I can fit more stuff in :p
PS I’m a terrible photographer so the photos came out a bit shaky and blurry

I love your choice of fabrics, i love strips and the combination with the red leather straps is extra stylish, well done.

you are by far a better designer than photographer! :-) i love the bag very very much. it is stylish and elegant, but it looks very comfy as well and i am sure, it can hold loads of “important” things.
great bag. and thank you very much for sharing. i think, i iwll try to make one of these too!
