Bag of the Week 21
Thursday, June 3, 2010 at 6:00AM Summer Screen Tote
Our pool opened this past weekend so I guess it is officially summer. And this bag is perfect for trips to the pool. It is another of Nancy Ota’s Screen Play bags (which I wrote about back on Week 12) . The body is made from pet screen and is perfect for carrying wet towels and toys back from the pool or the beach. The screen bottom lets sand sift right through.
I absolutely love this fabric, Fruit Ladies by Mary Stewart. When I saw it I immediately knew I would use it on one of these bags. The stripe is a Waverly home dec fabric.
This pattern includes four sizes of bags. This one is the large size (there is still one larger than this one). Try this pattern and make your own summer bag, perfect for the pool, beach, library or farmer’s market.

Love your site. You ought to check out http://www.joyshope.com/ for a cool site as well.
Thanks for all of your nice comments, Irene. I will check out this new website. Thank you.
I made my first purse from this pattern and added a bow from your posting as well for the front. I love it! Can't wait to make some more. What a simple easy pattern. Do you use a closure at the top or just leave it open. I'm thinking of adding a top closure of fabric with a drawstring to keep items in.
Keep up the ideas!
