Tote bag - made almost entirely in the hoop. (Testing a new design.) The second picture shows it still in the hoop - all that remains is to join the side and bottom seams of the lining.. The front section has a pocket which is closed when the flap is fastened.

a very neat bag, love the fact it is all construction in the hoop.

Love that bag! Great design, great fabric colours and prints, great flap. Well done.
Hugs, Lidia

fabulous piece and so useful in the days to come when single use plastic is not used.

Beautiful! Would love pattern. Keep up the creativity!!

Nice job, Sue!

Seven hoopings in all, but it is great when the order comes together and everything is joined up.

Wow! Sue, this is outstanding. Love your choice of fabrics! Love Chris

Very nice... what is the size?

Good job! I know you have a large hoop, so what size is the finished bag?
