Hello Cuties! I saw this pieced braid a few days ago made with denim and I wanted to try it. I put a few rows together and told my daughter I didn't know what I was going to make with them....Well, you know I like to make bags and decided to make a tote.

No outer pockets on this one. It has one zip pocket on the lining and a zippered divider pocket (for lack of what to call it) in the center to secure things like your wallet and more. On each side of the divider, it is open to drop things in, like cell phone, etc. I also put 2 key straps, one on each side seam of lining.
I think this would be better done with a cotton fabric as it has so many seams. I broke a needle and bent another was so thick... :-(
For the denim I used a half hexie ruler,charm size, I got from MSQC that I have been wanting to use. I embroidered my name and almost placed it on the bottom-lol-I put it so low! I did it before I boxed my corners.
Every piece was made from my stash. I needed the darkest color jeans for contrast, but I would not use these again. I had a little trouble, because they were a stretch, but I think I conquered in the end.
Hope you like this new tote. Have a nice evening, night or day where ever you are!-Toogie
