Q1 - 241 tote finished


I wanted to make this pattern for ages. The well know 241 tote by Noodlehead. I seen many beautiful versions and it took me a while to pick some fabrics for mine. I went with Nordika and added some Essex linen in grey and steel shade.


I wasn't sure about the size as it seems small on some pics but it is just right.


I used some local orange fabric for the lining.


I didn't have enough of that Nordika fabric so on the back side I only used wide strip. Last pic with the tiny diary I shared last week.


I'll be linking up to 2014 Finish Along as this is my first finish for the Q1. You can check my list here. There are plenty more to do.

As usual I'm linking up with TGIFF and Crazy mom quilts.

    Stunning. And having a shoulder strap on a tote is such a cool idea.
