Welcome to the Give It A Whirl Blog Hop, hosted by Carol of Just Let Me Quilt. Today is the final day, and I hope you like my project. This is a free pattern from Carolina at Always Expect More, titled: Sewlebrity Quilt Block Tote. What I love is that you can choose any 12 1/2" sewn quilt block pattern for the front. In keeping with the whirl theme of the blog hop, I chose the: Martha Washington Star block from Tara Reed. The main bag is ink navy, with white-on-white hex print and solid grey accents. Can you see the kinda double pinwheel center design? One is ink navy and the other is solid grey. Please continue reading for a list of all of the blog hoppers.
The tote quilt block is echo stitched by machine with walking foot. The pattern calls for two shorter strap handles, but I made only one and made it longer. It is topstitched for added strength. The back of the tote features a large slip-style pocket, perfect for important papers or a device. The entire tote is backed with fusible Pellon® Decor-Bond 809®. The lining is made of an abstract blues print fabric. There is a handy inside pocket as well. A magnetic snap closure is on the top center. This tote measures approx. 16" X 18" {with some added length to the pattern}. If you have not yet visited the other hoppers, it's not too late to do so. Thank you so much for visiting my blog.

Love your pinwheel tote bag and I especially like your idea of one longer strap. Great idea!
Sweet bag! The pinwheels are a nice addition to it. I would want one strap too--two are a nuisance to keep together. Thanks for sharing!
