I had wanted to use these fabric scraps that I had hanging around in my scrap bucket for quite some time but couldn't decide what project to use them for. I finally decided to make a tote with the scraps. Most of the scrap pieces used were from fat quarters that were used for another project. I simply cut some 2 x 3 rectangles and pieced them together in the pattern I wanted. Then I added a strip along the top to complete the front panel. After quilting the front with a bold brown thread (I wanted the quilting to stand out) I attached a solid back panel for the back of the tote. I continued the scrappy theme by using different fabrics to create the handles for the tote. After adding some gussets and a lining the tote was finished. The finished tote measures around 14 by 12 inches.
