Classroom Tall Tote

By Quilter by Night Designs. This tote is tall and wide and was specifically designed to accommodate a large throw and an extra sweatshirt for a day at the beach or an outing to the park. It’s also the perfect size for hauling a bunch of binders and folders, so it makes a great gift for a favorite teacher! The wide, uninterrupted middle panel shows off a large-scale or favorite theme print, making this a great tote for gift-giving.
