New Mama Tote
July 23rd, 2008 in sewing, quilting, galleryMade a small tote for new baby, only large enough to carry a few diapers, a bottle, and some wipies. Made a larger more involved one for the new mother. I put in lots of pockets, inside and out. I quilted the body of the tote, and used vintage buttons from my grandma's button tin. They are stacked (one white, one green) and just perfect with the colors in the fabric. Actually, the whole thing was made out of leftover fabric from a quilt.
