There are free projects at almost or all sewing machine web site, such as
Dee, for a free pattern for totes, and lots of other things, visit the Wild Ginger site, and click on "Wild Things". It will take you to a page where you can download a free program to make hats, bags, wraps, and lots of other little goodies.

I've seen WildGinger mentioned here numerous times and this was the first time I've ever visited the site. ACK! They're just about 20-25 miles down the interstate from me.
Except that they don't have a store, only a webstore.

I've downloaded their free accessories patterns and I've been very pleased. I knit baby hats for charity, and I also use the Wild Ginger ski hat pattern to make polar fleece hats to throw in with my pile of baby hats that I donate. I also used their software to make myself a new knitting bag. I may one day scrape up enough to buy the other software, too.

The last time I visited my sister, she showed me a small bag made of a two-sided square napkin. The corners had been turned back, then stitched a half inch or so from the fold to make casings. (The half inch is a wild guess, as I didn't cross the room to take a good look.) Then a pair of drawstrings were threaded through the casings: the result was a little round bag of one print, trimmed with triangles of another.
I haven't the foggiest idea what it's good for, but it's cute.
It's fairly easy to design a simple bag:
Thanks so much for all the information! I'll be working on them and post pictures on my website when finished. :-)
Hugs, Dee
