After destroying the big canvas tote I'd originally selected for the February installment of my calendar project, I went with a small off white canvas tote, which was actually better since this is a short month.
As usual I deconstructed the tote, ironed it and basted some scrap batting to the front of it.
I don't know if this will work out like I see it in my head, but I'm stitching layers of vintage reclaimed fabric to the tote. I'm also leaving raw edges because I want a shabby look. Once I have everything stitched down I will embroider on top of the layers, and (if I have time) perhaps bead it a little.
