Sweat Shop

My sewing loft is in one of our outbuildings.  We call it the Dutch Barn because it looks like a Dutch Barn.  But the loft is hot in the summer.  This morning I rushed out to sew before it got too hot.  The dogs were happily snoozing at my feet.  I managed to finish this "City Tote"  before noon.  I found the pattern in Sew What You Love a delightful book I bought on impulse one day.  It is a pretty simple project.  I think I will make several for holiday presents.

The fabric was free as was the lining.  Auction finds....Next time I make it though, I am making the handle a bit bigger.
