1 size · channel quilted · boxed base · beginner friendly · PDF instant download · [XX] pages
A tote that stands up on its own. Vertical channel quilting runs the full height of the bag and the base is boxed, so it holds a rectangle instead of slumping into a bag-shaped puddle when you put it down.
Straight seams the whole way through — no zip, no hardware, no curves. The quilting lines are the only thing you sew before assembly, and they're what turn ordinary cotton into something structured.
