Patchwork Tote Bag Made from Orphan Blocks c 2025

This interesting patchwork tote bag features two different patchwork blocks one on each side giving it two distinct designs. It is likely to have been made using orphan blocks, individual patchwork blocks that were not used in a larger quilt but have been thoughtfully repurposed into a practical textile item.Measuring 24 inches x 24 inches, the bag was purchased by SHQA at the Henfield Stash Sale in 2025. Rachel chose it both because the seller was raising money for a local charity and because it is a useful, much loved addition to the collection. Its generous size makes it ideal for storing quilts or carrying shopping, while the two contrasting patchwork panels make it especially charming.
