Sewing pattern: Library tote bag you can make in an hour

August 9, by Anne Weaver. Leave a Comment

Sewing tutorial: Library tote bag you can make in an hour

This cute and sturdy tote makes it easy to carry your books to and from the library!  I’ve got a tutorial over at Orange Bettie showing how to make it.  The lined bag has boxed corners and a pocket on the inside to hold a library card.  There’s also an optional ribbon tab you can use to clip a smaller keychain library card.  The bag is constructed with a binding around the top, so there’s no need to hand sew a turning hole closed.  And if you’re loving that astronaut kitty on the galaxy print, there’s also a link to a free cut file!
