An easy to follow sewing pattern to create your very own Stand Up & Tote Notice tote bag. This beautiful tote bag pattern comes in 3 sizes to suit any and every occasion. The use of foam gives the bag a wonderful structure, enabling it to stand up at all times, making loading and unloading a breeze.

From the shops to the beach to the park, the uses for your Stand Up & Tote Notice tote are unlimited!

The Stand Up & Tote Notice tote bag has two outer slip pockets – one on the front and one on the back – giving you quick and easy access to things like your mobile phone and keys. It also has four inner slip pockets to help keep the contents of your bag nicely organised. A simple magnetic snap is all that is needed to keep this tote bag closed, making it a perfect choice for those who are yet to attempt zippers or are just looking for a nice easy sew with minimal hardware.

The medium and large sizes would also make fantastic diaper/nappy bags!!!
