RUTH convertible tote bag sewing pattern

I actually designed this tote bag using a plain denim fabric for my own use.  It is really a nice tote bag to have and really easy and fun to sew during the process of making this tote bag.  I decided to redesign it into a convertible tote with crossbody bag strap and also I am using contrasting fabric print for the front pockets.   I am so thrilled with the result.   Here it is, my new sewing pattern, RUTH convertible tote bag, is available in my Etsy shop now.  Simply click on any photo below to lead you to my Etsy shop ^v^
