Ukulele appliqué tote bags


I've made some small tote bags to take to Hollesley Uke Festival at the weekend. Hollesley Ukefest is a camping get-together and strum-together for regulars of the wonderful Ukulele Cosmos forum. It will be attended by some of the best and most enthusiastic uke players in the country (it's already sold-out) and I'm very excited to be joining them - I fall into the 'enthusiastic' category.

The tote bags are made from remnant pieces of fabric and the uke motif is life-size, inspired by my beloved Hamano soprano uke. Each bag is unique. 

I'm going to keep one for myself but have become so attached to them all, I can't decide which one to have...

  

Update on 23rd September 2011: Appliqué uke tote bags are now available in the shop!

Love the bags.
I'm now going to shoot my advisors for not telling me about the festival.
