Leafy Tote

[lileepers.livejournal.com]

I've made a few custom totes recently, and I've been really bad at posting them here. This is definitely one of my favorites to date, so I wanted to share :)




I created the leafy pattern, screen printed it onto the fabric (in three custom mixed colors), and made some extra buttons out of some of the fabric scraps. I also reinforced the bottom, but I forgot to take a picture :(






Close up of the buttons. The are one inch, and 1.25 inch.
The teal polka dotted fabric was a PERFECT match for the teal strapping I had!


I also screen printed the pocket on the inside


I always get so nervous when I have to sew button holes. For some reason I always stress myself out over them, and then they end up being super easy!
