The C2C Color Block Tote allows you to mix and match blocks of color to make a checkerboard, a solid color, or anything in between. You can even create your own graph to make an image!

Blocks are added to this tote bag using the corner-to-corner (C2C) join-as-you-go method. As a result, the C2C stitches all line up in a gorgeous texture. You will want to make lots of C2C Color Block Totes - make some for gifts, and keep some for yourself!

Because of the unique shape, it’s a bit of a 3D puzzle to put the pieces together. But with clear instructions for how to put it together, the bag works up quickly. If you get stuck, I’m happy to help.
