As you can probably tell from the pictures, the stitching on the sides/bottom/ends was fairly easy and their assembly was quick. But those handles!!! 15 pieces of plastic canvas destroyed before I FINALLY got two handles cut out correctly!! My youngest daughter saw it and said, "That's cute! I want one!" I told her "Fat chance!" The pattern came in a book with another really cute tote pattern (that has ridiculously easy handles) and I told her I would gladly make that one for her. Luckily, that satisfied her!
This is a chance for me to track the experiences I am having with a new venture that I have dubbed "Mostly Homemade Christmas". I will be discreetly sharing the project ideas, successes, failures, etc. of seeing just how many of the Christmas gifts I give end up being things I've made!

Pictures of the Tote with the pain-in-the-neck handles!!
