Relief Tote Bags

Everyone, your efforts for making and sending quilts is unbelievalbe. What a great group.



I decided to put together a free pattern for a simple tote bag. I see news coverage of people walking around with their possessions in garbage bags. I thought a quick and easy tote made from one yard of fabric might be a good idea to send with the quilts you are making and sending.



I plan to post the pattern on my website. Is there a place on this newsgroup to post the file for anyone to access?



Thank you in advance.

It's a pdf file and you need acrobat reader to open/view/print the file. I know these files can be finicky and I recently heard that if you have trouble, save the file to your computer then open it from there.

Thanks! Joan
