Stitch up a tote bag that's a barn and then fill it with eight darling little farm animals. Imagine your little one (or someone's else's - baby gift! holidays! birthday!) carrying a portable farm here and there, unpacking the animals and playing for a bit, then stowing them away again inside their cozy barn.

The 7 page full color PDF gives you the step by step, photos and patterns to make the TOTE with stitched farmers (boy or girl) in the door and EIGHT sweet ANIMALS. There's a cow, horse (or donkey), sheep, duck, pig, rabbit, rooster and hen with her two chicks.

You will also need a few sewing things before you begin- cotton or linen fabrics, needle, floss, scissors, hoop and a vanishing marker (from the quilting department). Although not essential, a sewing machine sure makes it finish up faster. It helps to know how to do the simple back stitch and the chain stitch, two basic embroidery stitches. (Tutorials can be found online at a number of sites including youtube.)

The downloadable PDF will be emailed to your Etsy email address within 24 hours of purchase. I am, of course, available for any questions or issues, but it should easily download and print from your PC or Mac.
