I Made It!

I wanted to show this again, for the I Made It! Blog Party over at Everything Etsy.  I have been making these tote bags lately, some for gifts and some for sale. While I was on vacation I went to visit my mother in law, and took her one for her birthday. Since she is using a walker these days, I took measurements while I was there and  brought the bag home with me so I could make some modifications.

I added three 3" straps with velcro.

By adding these three straps that fasten with velcro, it will attach to the front of her walker. She’ll be able to take all the things she needs with her wherever she goes, with a lovely bag to hold it all.

Trying it out on a broom handle.

I wanted to see how it worked, so I hung it on a broom handle. Perfect! I know my mother in law will love this!

To see what everyone else has made this week, click over to Everything Etsy.

    Very clever and practical too and I love how good it looks with the coordinating fabrics. And the straps are wide enough to get a good grip and be easy to hook and unhook. You are one smart lady!

    These would be cute as a laptop bag too. I wonder if you could even insert a sleeve for extra protection.
