Hand-made Heart Tote




Inspired by this 'How to sew your own tote bag' tutorial by gorgeous little Sarah from Sarah's Loft blog, I made this reversible tote bag for my dear friend Yumi. A little while later I made another for Gracie. I think it's so lovely to be able to give your friends something hand-made don't you? And with Sarah's excellent tutorial you can make some for your own friends and family this Christmas. Thank you Sarah!

Happy sewing sandwiches!
