Yoga Teaching Tote Bag Finish!

Today I'm teaching a Spring break yoga class for children at a local rec center. So last week I decided I needed a bigger yoga teacher tote bag to carry all my stuff to classes. I designed the pattern and pulled some fun fabric and vinyl from my stash. This is how it turned out:

I wanted it big enough to hold all my yoga kit:

• Yoga mat
• Two yoga blocks
• Foam roller
• Yoga strap
• Daily meditations prompt book/books
• Water bottle
• Yoga coaching business cards
• Keys/wallet/cell phone etc
• Sweat towel
• Lesson plans

It comfortably holds all my stuff. As soon as hubby saw it he said, "it'd make a great beach bag too!".

Note: Tutorial coming soon! 

Here's a few pic of the inside:

Keys/personal belongings zip pocket:

There are actually two very handy zip pockets!

Water bottle pocket:

This is the basic shape of the pattern piece but my soon to be released free tutorial will explain the pattern drafting process to create your own pattern piece: 

And the vinyl base is optional, you could use all fabric if preferred:

I'm really happy with the outcome!
