This is the first tote. I made it last night. I didn't line it or anything. It only took about 15-20 minutes. The handles are like a braided material from Hobby Lobby. I went by there today and they had them 30% off per yard.
I stocked up.

I forgot to say that there is no odor or damaged areas or anything on the material. He also told the guy that works there to be on the lookout for anything else like it.

Great looking tote! I am jealous of anyone whose husband would think to claim that fabric. My DH wouldnt think twice about passing it by, but . . .if it was a tool or something fishing related, he would be on it in a flash! I guess I know where his priorities are. :smack
