Firefly Tote Pattern by Noodlehead

An easy to use tote and project bag! The tote size is perfect for a day trip or a work bag, and the project size is great for knitting or crochet projects, or as a lunch bag! Both sizes feature a fun drawstring closure and an interior slip pocket. A handy front pocket with an additional zippered pocket makes this tote super functional.

• Two sizes to sew! "Project" size is the smaller of the two, "Tote" size is the larger.
• Front slip & zip pockets (great for featuring a favourite fabric and oh so useful!)
• Drawstring top closure to keep everything secure
• Interior pocket
• Simplified option for an even quicker sew!
• So many possibilities!
