Small Treat Totes

These little guys measure 4" X 4" X 2"

A little something I have been working on this week. These are the Small Treat Totes from the latest issue of Quilts and More. Of course I haven't been able to find the magazine locally yet but luckily All People Quilt has the pattern online.





It's a great little pattern. You use 2 fat quarters and you get 4 little totes.


You use a light fabric and a dark fabric and you end up with 2 versions of each. I love that the handles are ribbons.

Now I need to make some Christmas ones. These bags would be great for handing out candies to those special Trick-or-Treaters that come by. They would also look great sitting on your desk at work filled with candies. I can think of several different uses for these little totes.

(There are only 7 in the photo because my first one came out a bit wonky when I did the top stitching around the top. That one is already being used in the sewing room and I forgot to grab it for the photo shoot)

QUILTING IS BLISSFUL, DI said... 12

You are sooo funny!!! I would normally guess that the one you left in the sewing room is filled with "sweets" for you to enjoy while sewing--but don't think you eat alot of sweets!!!
I do love them--but don't need any fall or halloween ones--but now Christmas is another subject!!!!
Hugs, Di

Halloween's not a big thing here. I wish it was and then I could make those way-too-cute little bags too.

You must have had so much fun making these. They are absolutely adorable. Actually - don't you think they would look great in a big size too? A great market tote!
