Tomato bag handle tutorial #2
Fold the handle up over the end and leave 1-2" below the line you sewed. Starting at the very top sew across- licking beginning and ending- and pivot and sew an X diagonally and across the bottom. Do this for all 4 handle ends.
Tomato bag handle tutorial #1
First cut out your piece the size you need for your tote. Then, fold the shorter edges down 1-2" and press and another 1-2" and press an stitch from side to seed.
Cut webbing the length you need and measure the same distance fron both edges on both sides and pin.
Lay the end of the webbing just over the seam you sewed but not all the way to the top.
Sew across the webbing overtop the other line. Do this on all 4 handle ends.

Tomato bags for sharing our garden
Every year we share tomatoes and use those plastic bags from the store. Now we have quilted totes the perfect sizetonhold 3 or 4 tomatoes. They stand up and hold their sale.

Wallet second try
I tried to make the zakka organizer and had to remove the zipper because I couldn't get the bias on!
When all finished I liked it better without the zipper and used Velcro.
