At first, I made this one.
The fabric is “Farmdale” from Alexander Henry.
Then I made this one. The same beautiful apples, just smaller…
the bag is also smaller,
for a mother-daughter team.
I also had in my stash these big apples, it’s “Apple of My Eye” by Quilted Fish for Riley Blake. Big apples- big tote!
I added two zippered pockets (one inside and one outside), to keep safe the important stuff.
All three…
just one more picture…
I used many types of interfacing and I learned a lot! Including that Timtex is not fusible! I had to order 10 yds to learn this! It is not that I can’t make it fusible or I can’t use it…but today I would have needed a fusible Timtex! I finally found a substitute! More about my interfacing experiment in a future post.

Great bag to take quilt shopping.
They are really cute Geta !! Thanks for posting !
They are wonderful and perfect for all sorts of shopping!
Great fabs for lovely bags!
Beautiful!
Can't wait for the pattern!!
I've also created with Timtex and "made it fusible". Love the stiffness, but I will admit I get a bit frustrated when I don't have the right supplies.
Your summer bags are very cute. Look very flexible in design to work throughout the seasons, but definitely fun for summer.

What a great set! Love the shape and the fabrics you chose.
I love this bag! I've only seen one other I like, the Jane Market bag. Are you posting a tutorial or selling a pattern? Will it be in English with standard measurements? I will buy it if it is. Let me know!
Love the bags – but I'm also looking at the lovely whole cloth quilt that they're sitting on! it's great – did you make it?
Sweet bags…especially the tiny one:) A little girl would adore it!
