This tote is part of my Indigo Collection—a body of work inspired by deep blue tones, classic quilt blocks, and everyday usefulness. The sawtooth star has always felt grounding to me—familiar, steady, and timeless. I designed this piece when I wanted a bag that felt dependable and well made, something practical enough for daily errands while still nodding to traditional quilting.
The focus here is on clean piecing, thoughtful machine quilting, and a softly structured shape that holds its form without feeling stiff. It’s a bag made to be used—easy to reach for, comfortable to carry, and right at home in daily life. Simple, functional, and rooted in classic design, this tote is meant to settle into your routine and go wherever the day takes you.
A quilted everyday tote featuring a classic sawtooth star design, made by hand in my studio. The body is softly structured with boxed corners for depth, fully lined for durability, and finished to be used daily—not saved for special occasions. Each piece is handmade and subtly unique. This tote is machine quilted using high-quality quilting cottons for durability and everyday use.
