I drew the tote bag pattern by myself. I worked for more less one week, including the transfering the pattern, cutting the fabric and sewing it. The size approximately 43 x 35 cm.

Material needed:
- Home Decor Cotton for body bag, bottom bag, handle, and flap.
- Light Cotton for interfacing and pockets.
- Bias Piping
- Zipper
- Magnetic fastener
- Wooden Hoop, diagonal 4 cm
- Threads


The wooden hoop are really cute, I brought from the local market for MOP $5 each.


The picture above is inner bag, one side with the zipper and another side with two opening pockets.
