Green Forest Tote



I've made quite a few of these totes but this is the absolute last one. When a remnant is gone, it's gone. I use mostly discontinued fabric remnants, as good fabric can be prohibitively expensive. Remnants make it possible to sell a bag at a reasonable price. This fabric was chosen for me by Loretta Jankowski, my classical pianist, teacher and movie-composer sister-in-law from a warehouse in New Jersey, the mythical land of fabulous fabric sources. I call this tote Green Forest. It has a lovely paisley damask lining and will go up for sale at the farmer's market in Hamilton on Saturday. With three big shows in September, I'll need a good inventory of totes.
