FanTastic Tote

Are you ready for a new tote design that will let you show off your beautiful panels and fabrics? We've got just the thing! Introducing the FanTastic Tote. This tote offers a beautiful fan-like shape. You can even "fussy cut" the front and back center pieces to show exactly the section that you want to highlight. A favorite flower, cute critter, or any motif can highlight this tote. And it gets even better! This pattern includes instructions for making your own "fussy cutting" templates. And no Birthing or Binding required!

This tote is 18" W x 10" H x 3"D, and it's got a special construction that keeps the handles inside the bag, which we think you'll really like! It also has hidden connectors for an adjustable strap, a large pocket on the exterior back, a zipper pocket, and a "no turn" slip pocket. These are perfect for those waterproof and water-resistant canvas lining fabrics that wrinkle badly when they are traditionally turned. And it's all securely closed with a recess zipper!

We've included pattern pieces and interfacing pattern pieces except for those like handles and straps. SVGs are included too! You'll also find the fabric requirements and layouts for all exterior elements in the package.
