I've had a remnant of gorgeous home dec fabric for a while, purchased from the remnant bin and an odd shape.
These are simple boxed bottom tote bags of my own design, loosely based on a purchased 'Bag For Life' of a nice size.
I cut long strips which became the handles, and wide pieces for the bags.
Not shown is the 5th bag which has plain black webbing handles.
I'll probably keep one for myself, and use the others to pass over the outcome when I sew for others or have Christmas gifts.
Dimensions
Straps, 4.5" to 5" wide, 26" long.
Bag, horizontal strip 38" wide, 15" tall, with 1 inch turned under at the top and 1.25" squares cut out at the corners to make a boxed bottom.
I've also made some tablecloths and square pillowcases mostly from cream fabric. No photos as its rather boring sewing.
