Boat Tote - Today’s project is a tote bag that I’ve been meaning to make all summer. I really wanted a bag that could hold wet bathing suits and all of our pool gear. This one is made with Echino polyurethane coated cotton and plain canvas. This bag is lined and includes a magnetic closure and detachable pouch option, which is nice for storing a small camera or wallet that you can take with you without bringing the whole bag. The finished size is approximately 15″x11″ and 5″ deep.

All-In-One Picnic Tote - Make an impromptu picnic with friends even easier with an all-in-one tote for your picnic essentials! The picnic tote looks like an ordinary blanket when unfolded, but it also has pockets for all the supplies you need for your picnic. Once it’s folded and the straps are buttoned, you have an easy way to carry all your picnic essentials in one bundle. Gather blankets and your friends to create these beautifully simple bags with both sew and no-sew options.
