thanks for sharing, I'm on a bit of a bag hunt these days, so these are just perfect!
Just lovely, lovely - thanks! :-)
I'm one of those annoying "tote" people. I have a bag for everything, and it finally gets to the point where I frustrate myself trying to find what bag something is in. SO - this tutorial is perfect for me!
wowsers! i didn't expect my little tote bag to be listed there. thanks, what a pleasant surprise:)
I'm a big fan of the Morsbag people - check their site at morsbags.com for a simple tote pattern, one you can easily adapt or fancify.
I think that even with my 8th grade home ec sewing skills, I can still pull off the mini tote. Love that 2-fabric combo!
A person can never have too many totes! Well, maybe MP Amy, but otherwise.... ;)
Such pretty bags!

Wow, thank you so much for sharing my tutorial! :) Want to know something ironic? I was just thinking yesterday about making a few more in your fabrics that I have stashed!

Thank you thank you thank you! I am excited to get started!
If I start one of these now, I might actually get it done before summer! Now I just have to decide which one. Thanks for posting them, they're all cute!
Ooh, thank you for these links. I feel some weekend sewing brewing...with my new linen apples fabrics.
These are so cool! I have to admit it but I don't even use a pattern for my bags but love just seeing the shapes of others for inspiration.
Just found your blog and I love all the wonderful ideas you have here - I'll be back lots - great links to bag tutes, I'm going through a bag-making phase at the moment so I'll definitely be looking! Thanks for sharing!

I fall in love with these bags! Thanks for sharing
I agree that one can never have too many totes! Plus they make fantastic gifts. It's never too early to start for Christmas, right? ;-)
One more tutorial for you:http://ploefff.wordpress.com/2010/12/19/at-hacke-en-ikeapose/
One of the reasons why i love tote bags is that you can create one for yourself. It will be unique and you will surely cant find the same design from any bag studios plus it will be valuable because you made it yourself.
Hello - I came across your blog after finding an image of one of your bags on Pinterest while I was searching for some fresh ideas for my handbag website - I am glad I found your blog, you do great work.
This is where I saw your bag on Pinterest http://pinterest.com/chelmsford/handbags/
