A roomy zip-top tote built for everything from grocery runs to weekends away.

Sew it in two sizes, add the removable crossbody strap for hands-free errands, and quilt the exterior if you want to give it a one-of-a-kind finish. The reinforced base holds its shape, the front pocket grabs what you need fast, and the zipper top keeps everything tucked safely inside.

The regular size handles your everyday hauls: library books, lunch, laptop, snacks for the kids. The overnight size carries enough for a few nights away or doubles as a serious project tote. Either way, this is a bag that earns its place in your weekly rotation.

✨ Here's why you'll love it:

  • Two sizes (Regular and Overnight) so you can pick the right one for the job
  • Secure zipper top closure keeps everything contained on the move
  • Reinforced base that stands up on its own, even when loaded
  • Easy-access front pocket for grab-quick essentials
  • Removable crossbody strap for hands-free wear, or carry by the handles
  • Interior slip pocket so smaller things have a home
  • Quilting instructions included if you want to add custom texture or showcase a special print
  • Free video sew-along walks you through every step
