Super creative idea! I like it a lot and will definitely update some of my many plain tote bags. Thanks, Betz!

What a great idea. Now. Please excuse my ignorance. What is meant by tablecloth material.

Hi. If you look at the tutorial, the designer used a thirfted tablecloth to add to the outside of an old tote bag. So, the "tablecloth" material just refers to using an old tablecloth. You could really use any material you would like to use for this project though! Hope that helps! Kaylee. editor, AllFreeSewing.com

This is not a tote to make. this is a tote anyone can buy. Terrible that this site has to resort to purchased items and sent to a tutorial that is useless.
