INSTRUCTIONS for a doll tote bag
STEP 1: PREPARING TOTE SIDES
With one piece of the 6" x 6" pieces of fabric, turn under 3 sides 1/4" and stitch down. You can hand stitch or use a sewing machine.
STEP 2: SEWING PANEL TOP
Turn the top of the fabric (the top of the tote bag) under to the wrong side 1/4" and press. Turn it under a second time 1/4" and press. Stitch close to the inside fold.
STEP 3: ATTACHING STRAP
With one ribbon, pin it to the top of the panel on the wrong side about 3/4" from each corner. Make sure not to twist it when attaching. Sew the ribbon to the panel.
Repeat steps 1 to 3 with the second piece of 6" x 6" fabric.
STEP 4: SEWING TOTE BAG TOGETHER
Place the two panels on top of each other with the right sides together and pin. Stitch around the sides and bottom of the bag next to the fold. Clip the corners. Turn right side out.
STEP 5: EMBELLISHMENT
Embellish as desired.
The tote bag is ready to use. Pop it over the doll's shoulder and she is ready to shop.
