Prototype tote bag

I want to make a more versatile tote bag as gifts so I took that little drawing from yesterday and started putting some measurements to it.  There are a few more pieces I need to cut out but those will have to wait until I start sewing pieces together to get more accurate measurements. 
I got most of the pieces cut out and even labeled them!
Next I cut and ironed on the interfacing, and pressed and folded the handles. I did give myself some wiggle room with length of some of the pieces.
Tonight, I will start sewing this together and hopefully get the lining cut out.  This first one will be for me.

You are one busy lady! So nice of you. Totes I've made are small (8"x6")...I'm lazy!

I'm sure your tote will turn out good. I have made many sizes of totes over the years, usually just winging it through the process. I think I only wrote down the dimensions of one.
