The Winslow Market Tote

After admiring this tote (of the Alewives blog)Alewives and having the supplies for weeks I pulled out my copy of this Winslow tote pattern by Kathy Mack and "got to work on it".

Here is a picture of my finished product:

I found it extremely useful to use an industrial size sewing needle in my Singer sewing machine while completing this project.  I also used organic canvas as the interfacing and I added reenforcement stitching to make this tote extra sturdy.

I mailed this tote off to my sister-in-law this morning as a birthday present!  Happy birthday Joy!!!
