Monday is Fun Day - Aqua Leather Tote

You never know what you're going to run into, do you?  I was at a store looking for something I no longer remember, when I accidentally (?) wandered through the purse aisle and found a large leather tote bag on clearance.

I didn't have one this roomy - 14" tall by 19" wide with a 5" gusset.  My plan was to use it for all the things I haul to quilt meetings (notebooks, show-and-tell, purse stuff, etc.) .  Rather than juggling multiple straps/bags, this will make my life simpler.

Like I said, that was the plan.  In the meantime, it's packed chock full of selvages, and it might just stay that way.  Previously, I squirrelled away my selvages in I don't know how many containers / bags on multiple floors of our house.  But now I'm having fun with them all in one place, right in my sewing room.  As soon as I make it through some planned scrap projects, then I'll turn my attention to my selvages.
