TOO FOO TOTE

SUPPLY LIST

• TOO FOO TOTES Pattern, available at The Sewing Machine Shop
• Materials needed are listed on back of pattern
• Instead of Craft bond, I used fusible fleece and I fused every piece
• If you choose to make bows, decide on the type of bow you want, I used 2 yds. Of ribbon.
• Instead of plastic mesh I used plastic from Tap Plastics and had it cut 6”x12”
• The designs can be ordered from The Sewing Machine Shop.  Check the catalog in the back left hand corner of the sewing room.  The pack of designs you choose must be ordered early so you will have it for class.  The cost is $69.00.  Choose from  Laurel Burch Designs:  Fantastic Felines, Jungle Songs I or II
• Sewing machine and all parts needed to embroidery and sew in class
• Embroidery thread in desired colors for designs, bobbin thread
• Construction thread,  I used a variegated thread that would blend well with my fabric
• Designs must be ready to sew (remember to send them to your machine)
• Misc. sewing supplies
• Squares of cut-away stabilizer to put under hoop for embroidery (opt.)

BEFORE CLASS PREPARATION

• Cut out all pieces of pattern you will be using and fuse to fusible fleece.  Cut 8 of  piece A and cut them 1” larger than pattern piece.  This gives a little extra to help when you are ready to square the front and back after doing quilting and embroidery.
• Sew 4 blocks together with ¼ inch seams for front and also for back
• After embroidery and quilting are complete, square to 12 ½ wide and 10 ¾ high
• Read all directions and be prepared to ask questions in class if there is something you do not understand

All directions to complete your tote are found in your pattern.  Read carefully and follow exactly.
