I found some Lemon Placemats at the Dollar Tree and thought this would make a sweet little tote. It is already lined.
This is another cheap, fast, and easy sewing project. I used 3 of the placemats to make this cute little 5 pocket tote. It only cost a little over $3.00 and takes about 30 minutes depending on your skill level.
Here is a link for another Dollar Tree Project - STARFISH BEACH BAG video: • Dollar Tree Drying Mat...

Hint: When back tacking on top stitching, on last back tack, stop somewhere in the middle of seam. This prevents weird rabbit ears hanging out at the finished edge. I find that it’s safer to clip very close to the seam itself and it’s invisible. I used to sew medical bags with loads of top stitching and taught myself to cut down the aggravation and time by ending a seam this way. I hope this isn’t offensive to anyone, just want to pass it on to all my sister seamers.

i do that too. Was taught old school because im old! One teacher called them eyelashes if hanging off the edge. Cutting close on edge can cut through the backtack. but cutting top and bottom of seam its still held by the back tack stitches.

Yes, I wondered why she started right before the strap instead of at the seam.

Another place I have found beautiful cotton placemats was at Dirt Cheap. It's a closeout type store, like Big Lots. They sell lots of older Target items. During the strict mask-wearing time, I was desperate for 100% cotton and was able to find cloth napkins and placemats, there, that I took apart and made masks with.

First time watching one of your videos. Thank you for explaining it all so well! My mom tried to teach me some seeing when I was younger, but I didn't pay close attention. Now that she has passed I can't ask her those questions, but have her supplies. I'm trying to learn how to sew and videos like yours are helping me. Thanks for helping me to feel close to my mom and for helping me to take pride in what I can create with my hands. A tote like this would be perfect for carrying some of the water bottles and coffee thermoses I carry around in the car that like to roll around.

just saw you say you have a class. I going to refer beginners to you. Ive been sewing for 56 years. Learned old school. I try to help explain things to people in my sewing grous. Ive joined a lot of upcycle groups but some join having just bought a machine. Usually I tell them pick a simple apron pattern or top pattern and just learn to sew making that. Resizing and upcycling is hard if you dont know the basics of sewing or the geometry of how a flat pattern ends up fitting a body! I started a teaching blog to some specific projects but my ipad went crazy and its behind. I love your way of explaining basics as you sew. Will take a look at your other videos.

Jo, thanks for taking the time to share your love of teaching and sharing your skills with others. It sure can be a stretch. My mom started teaching me at about 8 years old and I just turned 70! Cheap and budget priced clothing moved people away from the need to stitch beautiful custom outfits! Thanks for taking the time to watch!

Love this. Dollar Tree online had a case of 24 Spring placemats and one is your butterfly. So good grab if sewing for a craft fair.

This was a Great Tutorial everything was clear to point. The fabric was eye catching. I've been sewing since 9 years old. I just love watching sewing tutorials in case it's something new out there.

Hi, I just completed the bag just this afternoon. I forgot to do the corners like you did and put my sewing machine away already when I realized I forgot to do them so I left it as is. I got the dollar tree placemats with the sunflowers on them. It really came out cute. I made it for my sister-in-law Rose who just flew in from Hawaii yesterday with her daughter Jennifer (my niece). Jennifer relayed a story last night about how Rose comes out of the bedroom and gets all settled in in her comfy chair only to realize she forgot her glasses so, of course, she yells to Jen to get her glasses.....a couple of minutes later she realizes that she left her phone and the book she was reading also in the bedroom....hmmmm, guess who is asked again to go and get those items....if you guessed Jennifer, you were right LOL. So, a very long story short....I decided to make her this bag so she can take everything at once from the bedroom....hope she likes it.....I know Jen will hahaha.

Cute story!!! Thanks for sharing! It made me laugh. Yes, I think she needs a tote to tote everything from one spot to the next. The sunflowers are so cute. I bought some of those, too.
