I'll show you how to make a basic tote bag.
I used 1/2 yard of 2 different fabrics.
My measurements:
2 rectangles 14" x WOF(width of fabric-44")
Gusset - 3"
Straps 19"
*Cutting longer rectangles will give you a taller bag.
**A smaller depth on the gusset will give you a narrower bag.
JUST. HAVE. FUN!!!
