The Wave Pocket Market TotePattern Used
The free pattern was found sometime ago at
Sew4HomeThe fabric used was bought at a local quilt shop. I found the cat fabric and then laid fabrics with it until I got what I wanted. The fabric for the piping was from the stash.
A short description on how you made it/problems overcome/etc.
I followed the instructions but did not want 4 small pockets on the front. I did three and put a snap to close the larger center pocket on the front of the bag. The pocket has sewn divisions which made it easy to change from 4 to 3.
The inside of the bag has a pocket in it which is a nice addition.
I followed the remaining instructions carefully until I got to the handles. They were not finished to my standards so I made my own handles. I did attach them as per the instructions.
I found my cat buttons so here is the bag with the black cat button on it.
Two things I would do differently the next time are:
- Interface the front pockets with shirt weight interfacing rather than fleece
- Do the handles 4" wide and fold until 1" wide. This makes the handles finished rather than showing interfacing on the wrong side of the handles.
