I found some chamomile-printed fabric at the Recycling Centre recently and it made me think of these daisy flowers we have growing happily in the garden, as well as all the baby chamomile plants that should be flowering by summer, too. 

I wanted to make a bag that featured the fabric (and a few others I had waiting) so I designed this 'big pocket tote' which is a very simple bag made from a plain fabric, with the big lined pocket on the front for extra usefulness. The pockets are lined and interfaced for sturdiness and they have a velcro closure so everything stays safe inside. I made a few for my shop update today, but have cut out one for me, too because i'm quite keen on having such a bag with a place for my ipod and book (and maybe some chocolate) on the front!

I hope your Wednesday is a lovely one, friends.
