Here is a little tote bag I made last week, on an evening we turned off the tv and I was looking through Lotta's simple sewing. I used leftovers from a chair I recovered, that would be in my flickr except I have to renew my pro account so right now it is taken out I guess...It is also made of the leftovers of a favorite jean skirt that got too small.
I saw this today- looks like something I would do. I am a kid, I re-paint a chest pf drawers and, high with the power of paint and a brush, I want to paint everything in sight but I know I would get in trouble if I did. Instead, I paint a heart on the back that no one will see. Until NOW...
great tote, love the mix of jeans & red! and that pink looks just like the pink I used on a chest of drawers I thrifted once. yummy pink, don't hesitate, go buy colours and start painting now Tania!

that tote bag is really nice! isn't it amazing what we can accomplish when we turn off the tv? unfortunately we don't do that often enough around here. heh

I really like the tote. I have been working on those as my "new" thing to accomplish. Also think the "heart" is very cute, looks like something a kid would do:)

But hey, that makes our life just more interesting than others :)
