Sewing pattern: Quilted mini tote

Caroline from Sew Can She shows how you can sew these adorable quilted mini totes! They’re the perfect size to hold a phone and wallet, and maybe a pair of sunglasses. There’s a large pocket on the outside, and smaller pockets on the inside. It’s a great project to feature pretty fabric prints – choose several coordinating prints to use for the outside, lining, and straps.
