We recently emptied a bag of bird seed and I thought it would be fun to make it into a bag. It ended up as two little totes. The boys each have claimed one and want to bring them to the farmer's market for their goodies.
Tote 1:
This is the back of the bird seed bag, stitched together. Then I pinched the bottom corners (from the inside) and sewed across them to give it a structured bottom.
The handles are made of the sides of the birdseed bag folded in half and stitched together. I used a box stitch to attach them to the tote.
Tote 2:
This is the front of the birdseed bag with the same pinched corners stitched across as with the first tote.
But with this one, I used canvas material from my stash for the handles and for a credit card/ money pocket.
To make the credit card pocket, I took a rectangle of fabric and folded it in half, right sides together. Then I turned and topstitched it together to make a patch pocket. I added a snap.
