Custom Made Tote for LED Light Pad

My friend, Tara, commissioned me to make her another tote to hold her LED light pad inside. I made her one before, but she bought a new light pad and that tote was just a smidge too narrow for her new one to fit as it was a but thicker. Click here to see the first bag I made for her and for mine too.

I used some hand dyed fabric I had and forgot all about, along with some scraps of batik and an Asian print for the teapot and teacup appliqué. Those colorful scraps looked great on the hand dyed fabric. I didn't want to use a white or off white background because of how quickly those light colors can get dirty. At least if the hand dyed fabric gets dirty, it is more hidden.

I added a flap with 2 magnetic snaps to close the bag and a handle to carry it. I quilted the inside for better protection of the light pad. On the back side is a zipper pocket to hold the charging cord. I think it turned out rather well and Tara loves it and that's what really matters is that she is pleased with it.😍

Here is the bag I custom made to hold Tara's LED light pad so she can take it to her calligraphy class and to protect it when not in use at home or wherever else she takes it.
