I make a few different kinds of tote bags.
First up is the Pleated Tote:
These are made of duck cloth, so they're sturdy and heavy duty, but they're not bulky or heavy. A really nice weight, actually. The fun accent fabric is made of home dec fabric, and complements the main fabric color. In addition to being at the top of the bag, the home dec fabric is used to line the handles, and also for a pocket inside the bag (perfect for the little things you need).
The size of these bags is great - large but not huge. They measure approximately 13" tall, and 17" wide at the top. The handles are approximately 25", perfect for throwing on your shoulder. Because they are so sturdy, they make great book bags, but they're also perfect as a large purse, diaper bag, beach bag, or anything else for which you need a nice bag! I have one in green and one in brown and they are $40.00 each.
Next up is the Upcycled Coffee Bag Tote - these are so fun!
Each one of these bags is unique, because they are made from recycled coffee bean bags. They are lined with a cute home dec-weight fabric, which helps make each bag strong. With the exception of the last two, the bags have printing on the front and are plain on the back. Unless noted under a picture, each bag measures approximately 14" tall, while the bottom of the bag measures approximately 12" wide and 6" deep. The handles are approximately 17" long, perfect for holding in your hand, or on your arm, although you can put them on your shoulder as well for a more snug fit.
Here are all the designs to choose from:
The bag on the left is a little unique in that the burlap is not only a lighter color but it is also a bit stiffer, so the bag is more rigid than the others. Both of these bags are lined with blue ticking.
-----------------
You will notice that the bag on the left is just a bit smaller, measuring approximately 12 1/2" tall. The other dimensions are the same. These two bags are lined with red ticking.

And in case you're curious, for a comparison, here's how the bags fit on my shoulder (sorry the pictures aren't great):
Longer Straps (23") |
Shorter Straps (17") |
Annaleah, I love your stuff! It's fun to see another stay-at-home Momma doing what she loves. It's a treat to see what you're up to after all these years.
