Something that I do not make often is tote bags or purses at all.
My mother found this cute fabric at Selfmade and she really wanted to have this fabric but she was not sure what I should make of it.

I offered her to make a tote bag with flounces from the Burda easy 3/2022 with the fabric and add some laces to make the flounces around the tote bag.
It took many months before I actually made it, because I focused more on clothes most part of this year. It was not until autumn, that I took some time to make different stuff, as I often do.
