Tamara: GREAT tutorial!! I added a zipper pocket to one side of the tote and embroidered the initial of the gift recipient to the other side. After working for 40 years in Alaska, now retired and watching from Sioux Falls, South Dakota
That is wonderful! I am so glad you enjoyed making this tote bag your own. What a change in locations after so long! I hope you are enjoying being in South Dakota now :)

Texas---lovely bag and great instructions
Katherine, I love Texas! I have only been once and of course I hit up the Magnolia Silos, but for the rest I saw mainly Austin. It was such a wonderful place.
You are wonderful teacher - this is my second video and bag successful. I used a heavier interfacing which made it harder to sew but stands up and very sturdy. I am in Arizona.
Thank you for your enthusiastic and great teaching!
I am so glad to hear that Charlotte! I have been in my sewing room most of today. It’s so nice to hear that others enjoy sewing too. And your compliment makes me so happy!!!! It is my goal to teach people in the simplest way without wasting their time. Happy sewing!!

Hello! I am watching from Athens, Greece!
Lovely tote bag! Great idea to use a French seam on the side seams. (Re: your question: I'm watching from BC Canada).
Thanks Catherine! I really love French seams. They are so easy and make things so pretty. BC! That's where I grew up, Northern BC. I will always love BC. It is so beautiful!
The French seems really make this bag shine. Watching this tutorial from cold Michigan.
Thank you Maryann! I too am in the cold at the moment. But I am hoping a warm spring reaches alberta soon!
Great tutorial 🧵🪡 Virginia!!

Hi from North Texas! I've made several tote bags, but this one is by far the cutest and easiest! Love the french seams! Where have these been all my life? I'll be making more of these tote bags! Thanks for an easy-to-understand tutorial.

Thank you so much Kelly! Let me know if you ever have any questions. I at times can be a little slow on the reply but I try my best to get to them as timely as possible. Michigan looks like a lovely place. My husband wants up to take a trip through all the states one day and I look forward to seeing Michigan when we do!

Great tutorial, watching from Canada 🇨🇦
Thank you fellow Canadian!
Watching from West Green, Georgia. I was looking for a tote bag to make for a Christmas present. This looks super simple so I'll try this, putting a Dresden plate on each side, with the girl's name on the inside circle of the Dresden to personalize the tote. I've never heard of French seams, but they make it so much easier. Thanks for doing this video.
Wow Shirrell! That sounds like a great idea!!!!
Super cute and fun! I’m in California USA..
Thank you Shirley! California...sigh....our family goal is to get back there for a visit. What a beautiful location!
I am from rural northern Nevada.
This is such a simple, beautiful and easy bag to make, and I love that your instructions are “sew” simple, and measurements are in inches…a big bonus for me and others, I’m sure. Clever girl and lovely, too. I’m in RI, smallest state in USA.
Thank you so much Jill! RI looks like a wonderful state, one day I hope to see it in person :)
Watching from the Netherlands, thanks for the tutorial. I want to make it.
The Netherlands!?!?! That’s amazing!!!! I love it there! My grandparents immigrated from Friesland to Canada💜 so I like to think I have some Dutch roots. I hope you enjoy sewing this bag up 🥳
