For September's challenge over at Create with Me, and in honor of National Sewing Month, we were asked to use our sewing machines and make a handbag based on this tutorial http://iammommahearmeroar.blogspot.com/2011/09/tohoku-tote.html. I chose version two because I like the cleaner lines, the pleat, and the smaller bow. I did use a stabilizer in the form of fusible interfacing on my purse. I chose the fabrics from JoAnn's. I really enjoyed making this project, have a cute new tote to show for it, and I've already bought and cut pattern pieces to make each of my kiddos a Halloween treat bag from this same pattern (I'll leave the bow off, though)!!! Stay tuned to see what those look like when I'm finished with them.
