Description: An easy 'no frills' tote bag with a simple magnetic fastening, I've used Decovil Light to stabilise, a foam or fleece would work well too. Canvas fabric is ideal as it's strong and durable, I've used Butterfly Flower cotton canvas and Lavender Purple canvas, with grey cotton for the lining.
