Some people may wonder the point of chopping up bits of material…just to sew them back together again??! Here’s why I enjoy it so much!! Not to mention the fact that I delved into more of my button collection for this one as well…Oooo HAPPY DAYS !!!!! 😀 !!
Not content to make just one side pretty…I did the reverse in the same design too – oh, and then, a lovingly handmade interior pocket as well! Why not look good from every angle??

Just in case you think it’s the front again…check out the buttons…a couple are slightly different…all added to the hand stem stitched lines to give a little flower border effect!

All my patchwork quilted totes are fully lined, this one being no different, though a little extra time and effort was spent, lovingly making an interior patchwork multi pocket and following the theme of the tote bag, I added a few extra little buttons flowers as well – all looking very pretty against the printed blue and white cotton lining!
All in all, I reckon this is a brilliant, navy, blues and white ‘must have‘ Summer accessory 😉
