I am glad to show you my latest bags!
I modified my bag patterns and I made two extra large totes. These are my gifts for the new moms in our family.
This is the “Nicole” tote bag. I named it after the name of my youngest sister. My nephew will come into the world tomorrow so she needs this bag.
You can see its size, it’s really big.
17.5-22” (top and bottom) wide x 14.5″ tall x 5″ deep.
The zippered pocket on the back is large (10″),
and the lining is a beautiful orange print. The interior pockets are large too.
This is the tote for my cousin Kitty. This was the first one I made and the shape of the front pockets is slightly different.

The main fabric is a heavy cotton from Ikea. The only solid color I had was this beige denim.
I am in love with the white+beige combination ! I use it for the first time, for a long time I had the idea that they don’t look great together, but I was wrong.

I know I said I keep the miniature bags for me, but I will give the baby bag to Adelina, Kitty’s baby girl. It ‘s her size. 🙂
I hope you will enjoy it ! How I wish to have time to make one for myself !
Very practical bag. No worries about thing falling out of the exterior pockets. Lovely colour combination too ! 🙂
They will make fantastic baby bags – they can never be too big!
Ce frumoase au iesit!!! Super. Si poza ta este asa de draguta!
Love the bags – and love the fabrics!! Those would be perfect for a long weekend. I just ordered the patterns 🙂
Love the color combo AND the style!
What a nice large bag. Looks large enough to carry a big quilt too.
Geta – Love the bag! That would be ideal for so many different uses. I have two bolts of fabrics I purchased from Ikea and this is a great idea for one of the patterns. I received your free pattern this morning and will be ordering today as well. Thanks so much.
Love this large tote bag. Looks very modern and useful. Thank you for sharing the templates.
Have a super great sewing day.
You are soooooooooooooo wonderful to send the templates for this tote just because I brought the first pattern….I love it. Thanks so much!
I am a little worried about the zipper…insetting it???
I think your new bag is avery good idea and love the colours as it is suitable for either a baby boy or girl and the the baby bag is really cute
I am only sorry that I have not received my templates yet
Maggie,
I already sent the templates to all my customers. If you brought my patterns please send me your name and email address and I will send them to you again.

Wow, nice fabric, lovely bag. Your works amaze me always. Just as Andras Kati's patchworks. Keep up the good work.
Sunt super super gentutele. Acum am descoperit blogul tau si nu ma opresc din minunat 🙂
You have a remarkable talent. I discovered your blog by accident and am so delighted that I found it. I purchased patterns for your bags this morning. We have two daughters, a granddaughter and two other ladies who are important to our family – they will all receive bags for their birthdays. Many thanks!

I recently purchased the Retro Fun bag patterns and I look forward to making them to give as gifts. I do not see the measurements for the amount of fabric needed for the Nicole bag. Do you have that available. I would like to make this for a friend for a 'travel' bag. Thank you! Joann at joannspringer@comcast.net
