The Olivia quilted patchwork tote bag is such a darling bag that will surely brighten up your day. This bag comes with 2 exterior pockets, and four interior pockets. 

The patchwork of this bag is made out of charm packs (5" squares), and you will need 16 pcs only. If you have some charm packs perhaps leftover from previous project, you can pull them out, or simply purchase a fresh new one from your favorite fabric line.

Check out the fulll tutorial on my YouTube channel and consider subscribing so you won't miss any future upload.

No wasted time with chit-chat. The video went straight to the instructions with clear photos. One of the best videos on bag making. Thank you for a great pattern and easy to follow instructions.

I love this bag and your instructions have given me confidence to actually make a zipper pocket for the first time. I do have a question. How far down from the top should the zipper template be on the pocket. I did not see where that measurement was given so I went 1.5" down to draw the template.
