Tote Bag "For the Love of Andrea"

Hey all, Beth here and I wanted to post a little project a few of the crafty mamas worked on today. Some of my good friends from High School had a friend who was injured in the State Fair stage incident a few weeks ago and is still in the hospital. They have been working hard to raise money, prayers and awareness for her and her family during this time.

Anyway, a few of us got together and made this cute tote bag to sell at a fundraiser auction for Andrea. We used her signature hot pink and an awesome matching floral fabric. The tote is reversible and one side has a couple cute pockets sewn on. See Sara's tutorial for the Travel Tote that she made for DJ Ark here. It's very similar to this but with pockets instead of the map and it's bigger. We got the who thing done in about 2 hours with 4 kids running around so I would have to put the difficulty level pretty low.

If you are interested in bidding on this bag at the auction or want to learn more about Andrea and her road to recovery check out her blog. http://www.fortheloveofandrea.com/upcoming-events/
