No 2 will be the same!

I had planned on making a quilt from these squares I had bought a while back, however, I have not been inspired to make a quilt or anything from the little 5x5 squares, unti tonight! I know this is no qulit, but a great shopping tote or book bag. I want to play around with applique a bit, and this was my first one. The fabric is so fun, by MODA of course! 

Each leave is made with 2 different patterns sewn together. I also sewed pieces together to make the top bands and the back pocket. 

I also made sure that the inside was loaded with pockets, 5 to be exact! All different sizes for all those little things you need to be able to grab quickly, cell phone, keys, lipstick, you get the idea! 

I only have a few of each square, so I will be making different designs and appliques, so truly no 2 will be the same. This one is available now on my ETSY shop! Stay tunned for more desgins!! Have any fun applique ideas to share, I would love to hear them!!
