Tote bags are always in style and so useful! Pick your favorite from this list of 10 free tote bag patterns and get sewing!

All of these bags are great for reusable grocery shopping bags, an alternative way to wrap a gift and a great canvas for iron-on vinyl designs.

FREE Tote Bag Patterns To Sew

Basic Tote Bag Tutorial

The basic tote bag tutorial is easy to sew. You can make a whole batch of these bags easily. I love a good fabric tote bag because you can use any cute fabric you find for it!

Go Bags for Foster Care Children

This basic tote pattern uses premade strapping but you can also replace them with fabric straps.

If you’re looking for strapping, I love this bundle pack on Amazon (affiliate).

Leather Bottom Tote Pattern

This leather bottom tote pattern is a little more fancy with the pretty leather at the bottom! Leather totes are also nice because the bottom can wipe clean.

Convertible Iron-on Tote Tutorial

This oversized tote folds into a regular size tote – see how tricky it is here! 

Tote Bag Pattern with the Cricut EasyPress

This post also includes a tutorial to create iron-on doily designs.

The Sweet Scallops Tote

The Sweet Scallops Tote bag is one of my earliest blog projects! I loved using my favorite fabrics on this, even if the scallops weren’t perfect!

Halloween Trick or Treat Totes

See my trick or treating bags with three different spooky designs! It is so fun to create a tote bag to coordinate with a Halloween costume!
