Denim Tote Bags

I made my first denim tote bag when my oldest son started preschool.  I made this bag for his first day of school.  I wasn't quite happy with the way it turned out so I made another one, and another one, and a whole bunch more after that! 

This bag was my first attempt at applique.  I hand-cut the letters, used fusible webbing to adhere the strips and name, and zig-zagged over it.  I thought it turned out pretty cute.
