This pattern is for use with vinyl mesh (think pet screen/vinyl window screen), not poly mesh (think laundry bag). Pat is back with another easy tote bag tutorial, but this time around she is going to show you how to make a tote bag with vinyl! If you’re a lover of clear vinyl bags then this is a fabulous one! The tote featured on the pattern cover measures 13 wide x 9 tall, but the pattern includes instructions for 4 sizes, as listed below. Why not make several in holiday colors and use them to.
