Chubby Charmer Tote Bag pattern - StitchintheDitch.com Canada

From Quiltsillustrated, Inc Penny Sturges
Chubby Charmer is a great BIG bag!
Its wide bottom is fantastic for many uses. As an overnight bag, beach bag, diaper bag, etc. The bottom is wide enough to fit a 9" x 13" casserole pan! Approx. 14" tall x 18" wide x 10" deep

Great for retreats, quilting projects, travel, baby supplies, school supplies/books, wedding or graduation gifts. This will become one of your favorite totes & don’t be surprised if your friends & family ask you to make them one!

We used Fusible fleece on lining and soft and stable on front section to give us a bag that stands up!
Somehow the floppy look was not what we wanted.
We always use Shape Flex add to fabric before we add the fusible fleece, the fleece does not crinkle the fabric when applied to the shape flex
We also used soft & stable in handles
Start with 5" Charm squares for the outside
This bag is made from either 48 charm squares or 2 pieces of fabric (18” x 27” each) for the exterior of bag.
We like to use Shape Flex fusible stablilizer to give our fabric that quality finish.
