I made this tote by http://www.stitchahalf.com

I added pocket on the inside as well as the pockets on the front and back of the bag. I was pleased, it turned out well for my first attempt.
I made this for my very first swap. Unfortunately, my partner didn't notify me that she ever got the tote but guess someone did because it never came back to me.

So nice with lots of pockets. Maybe that person will see your project here and let you know that it was received. Usually I request from the Post Office a "Return Receipt" which sends a post card back with a "Signature Confirmation" that the parcel was received.

I wish I had done that. Great info for the future. Do cuties do swaps here? Thanks for looking and commenting on my tote.

Yes, Cuties have swaps. There is a Birthday one and just recently a towel one.

That is a great bag - to bad the person that it was intended for didn't get it or that she did and she didn't tell you. I am sure it is getting good use however.

I sure hope so, this took me about 20 hours to make. lol Needless to say, I have not done another swap. Not getting a tote from someone didn't bother me as much as not knowing if anyone got the tote.

Yes, the tote was all done in the hoop except for the straps. I included the FSL butterfly as a closure by adding the look for the button at the bottom of the butterfly. Thank you.
