Portuguese Pencil-Roving Tote- Part 2 of 2

Using masking tape...

...to accurately position the handles prior to stitching.



I zigzag stitched along the exposed seams...

...for a neater interior appearance.

 
The front of the finished tote...



...which, thanks to the box bottom...

...easily stands on its own for 'filling'! :)
 
The back of the finished tote.

 
Despite the color disparity (green and tan)...

...I really like the way this lining coordinates with the felt. :)

Sometimes a contrast is just enough to bring something to life - as here!

So sturdy, nice in and out patterns. The handles fit to carry on shoulder or in hand. You're very creative.
