Free Intermediate Sewing Bag/Purse Pattern for Women

With homage to the East, this multi-color linen tote is roomy enough for a laptop or tablet and the foam stabilizer helps protect any contents as well. Hand stitching with bold thread accents the appliquéd design motifs and creates a secondary patterning on its own.
