I also want to thank my pattern testers: Vanessa, Jeannie, and Gret. These three ladies are all amazing in their own right and I'm so glad they were able to help me out! Here are their 241 totes if you're interested in getting some ideas on more fabric choices:
from Vanessa at Punkin Patterns
from Jeannie
from Gret at A Little Red Ribbon
Beautiful, right?!
And I also want to give a shout out to my friend Krista who made a 241 tote over the weekend, aren't her fabrics great?



Oh I love these fabrics that were used! Thanks for posting. I bought your pattern on Friday but have been stumped on what fabrics to use!
ReplyDeleteI think I'll be taking a trip to the store tonight :)
Those look great! I especially like the "Under the Sea" bag.
ReplyDeleteLove this bag so much I just bought your pattern!
ReplyDeleteI normally avoid buying patterns as I get easily confused by them. I've made some of your free patterns before though and found them easy-peasy-poo to follow :) Awesome!!

SO in love with that bag! Can't wait to buy the pattern and try it out :)
ReplyDeleteI love the fabrics that Vanessa used ... so much so that I've just ordered the pattern (even though I wasn't supposed to be buying any more patterns till I've made something from every craft book that I bought last year - shh! don't tell my husband!).
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Gret's Fabric choices, so chic.
ReplyDeleteI totally love those fabric choices... why oh why can't my fabric stores have any decent looking fabric choices at reasonable prices! :(
ReplyDeleteThese all are all so different but look so good - really interesting to see the directions the pattern can take you in, just by switching the fabrics. Thanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI bought the pattern but haven't made it yet, I do have the fabric tho! these bags are wonderful ...
ReplyDeleteWow, what pretty bags!
ReplyDeleteI love the pattern and made mine on Saturday--will post pictures this week! Thanks so much for a great pattern!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so looking forward to trying out this pattern.
ReplyDeleteI am so excited about making this bag, Anna! I'm thinking about getting some Nani Iro print for it.
ReplyDeleteAll these three bags are lovely!
These are all amazing! Congrats on another fabulous pattern!!!
ReplyDeleteLove those bags! A great design! Congratulations, Anna!
ReplyDeleteThese are so adorable! I LOVE them! Great pics of some of the finished totes. I love all the fabric choices. Congrats on a beautiful pattern. =)
ReplyDeleteCan I just say I can't wait to get my hands on this pattern and make myself a new tote! Loving this design Anna, well done.
ReplyDeleteThanks again.
Love the fabric choices.
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics they used look simply mahhhvelous! I love the vertical zipper in the pattern. I'm giving away a copy of Kristin Hannah's "Night Road" this week if you're interested ...

They are all gorgeous. The design is fabulous Anna. My sister-in-law is the bag maker in our family... must make sure she sees this.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing all the different fabric choices and combinations. I'm getting ideas...
ReplyDeleteThanks Anna, it was a pleasure to help! x
ReplyDeleteDid it!

Seriously, can't wait to make another. It's killing me that I can't sew for 3 nights in a row.
So fun! Now, I just need to spruce up my sewing skills! BTW love your blog!
