Ekkk, so excited with my new Cricut Expression Tote Bag!!

I am sooo excited with the results of my Cricut Expression Tote!  I just finished it and could not be happier!  I have looked for a tote to carry my E to crops and either have found ugly ones or expensive ones!  And who wants to blow their crafty budget on a bag!  Then the other night it hit me ... ding,. ding, ding ... you own a sewing machine, silly ... make one you will love for 1/2 the price!  Grabbed this pattern, off to Joann's to find super cute fabric, etc and within about 1 hour I had it finished!  Yayyyyy!  I altered the pattern a bit .. but, I would not be a "true crafter" if I did not alter something, right!  I added pockets on the end to hold power cords, etc.  I am working on MY OWN pattern for a cartridge tote to match and will share that when I finish it!  Let me know what you think!! :)


Thanks for stopping by ...

I just watched your video on making a sympathy card, and LOVE it. I have to make a card today for a family and it was too difficult to even think of one. Thank you for sharing your gift, it will make it much easier to make a card today.
Do you show where you made the chipboard piece that you used to tie the ribbon? Thanks again,

Oh my do I ever remember that snow tunnel wall picture!!!! I live just outside of Houlton in Ludlow. Raised on the southern most coast, Mood-Ogunquit but been in N. ME for 15 years now.
Love your E bag!!!!!!!!! Would you share where you got your pattern, I am too lazy right now to make a pattern (just finished up 3 years of chemo). Great blog-following you now.

Do you have the pattern you used to sew this still by any chance? Would love to attempt! I am new to sewing, could I pull it off?
