Pattern Description:

Here's an easy tote to stitch and quilt in a hurry. The inner padding in both bags makes them perfect for safely carrying your laptop or other valuables. There's even a padded pocket, sized to fit most e-readers, attached to the tote lining inside the tote. Stitch-and-flip the strips in place on the tote body padding to piece and quilt it all in one. The lined tote is an easy afternoon project once you've gathered your favorite fabrics in three coordinating prints. The stacked heart appliqus add a little pizzazz to the front of the tote. Straps are also padded for your carrying comfort. Make the coordinating padded Accessory Bag to house your computer and e-reader cords, and USB sticks. Or use it for your small digital camera and cord.
