New tote bags

This past weekend I found a bit of time to finish sewing several tote bags. I had fabrics cut and some of the bags half assembled in my unfinished projects pile for a while, so it was great to finally get these done - especially since I'll probably be using some of them for Easter gifts.

Nautical inspired mini tote bag

As I've mentioned here before, this year I'm trying to use up as much of my fabric and yarn stash as I can. In the case of this small tote bag, I managed to sew it entirely from the same piece of fabric (and, more importantly, there were no leftovers).

Small Fabric Tote Bag

Tote bags can, of course, be made in all sizes. And when you're trying to use up smaller pieces of fabric from your stash, well, you end up making smaller bags.
