TOTE BAG

I found this piece of sashiko and the Japanese fabric when looking for something else last week.  I had purchased these back in June 2010 when I visited Ipswich to view a display of historical quilts on a bus trip with CQs.  On our way home, we stopped at a home in Forest Lake where we were able to enjoy a little bit of retail therapy.  I had intended to make a tote bag with these and finally it is done!  (The colour was a darker blue than in the photo - I used black thread to sew this bag.)
