Hannah's Tote

this tote pattern has come out of retirement for Hannah! with a couple changes: Hannah picked out her fabric and it is all quilters cotton from quilthome.com, instead of my usual decorator fabric. quilthome.com has so many choices, i love them because they have whole color families with fabrics that are designed to go together, so you know you will get a good color match, esp when you are shopping online. there are so many more choices if all cotton is used.
i did the faux piping again. i think it just adds so much to the finished bag. the colors are a little brighter in person, than what is showing in the picture. the name of the orange thread is "dreamsicle", makes me think of hot summer days and my favorite popsicle! ( i think we are going from winter straight to summer, supposed to be 80 again today!)
