Looking for the ultimate tote? Then, "Louise's Bag" will certainly fit the bill.

Carry the tote "closed" or "open" for even more storage capacity. You will be surprised how very roomy "Louise's Bag" really is.

Our pdf pattern provides detailed instructions which include step-by-step color photos that completely explain the entire construction process. It's just like having your very own private teacher.
