Bears!


I am excited to share my latest finish - the Poolside tote by Noodlehead using one of my all time favorite prints from Ruby Star. I love how big and roomy the tote is. This will be my bag for going to quilting related events like sewing with friends and guild meetings.


Those bears sure make me smile!

Pattern modifications & materials:
  • Did two zipper pockets on the outside instead of one zipper and one slip pocket
  • Added a zipped pocket in the lining
  • Added a mesh 'pocket' to keep a water bottle upright in the bag
  • Used Soft & Stable on the bag and SF101 for the lining 
  • Used a 1 1/2" strap for the handles, about 60" each
Have a wonderful day! Patty

  1. I spied the mesh pocket for a water bottle and think that's a really fabulous idea. Looks like you have a bag that will be super functional and bring a lot of joy to use!!
