'Chic' Tote Bag

For this modern quilted 'Chic' tote bag I used a combination of solid colours against a background colour called 'Putty'.  I added a practical black  panel on the base of the bag.  The bag is fully lined with black fabric and there is a zippered pocket on the inside of the bag.  The lining of the pocket is in a colour called "Pickle' which is one of the colours on the front of the bag. The zipper is black.  There is an attractive button and loop fastening.

The bag has been quilted in narrow horizontal lines in cream thread.   

The approximate measurements of the bag are:  W13½" x  H11½" or W34 cms x H29 cms.  The straps add an additional 14½" or 37 cms.  The inner pocket measurements are W7" x H5¾" or W18 cms x H14.5 cms.

I've used In R Form foam and this gives the bag extra body so that when you place the bag on a surface in doesn't collapse in a heap.  The strap also has a layer of In R Form foam.  In addition the bag is machine washable on a gentle setting (although particular care will be needed to protect the button).
