Crafting a stylish, functional tote that fits your daily life is now easier than ever—with the Stellar Tote Bag PDF Pattern by Thai Charm. Let me introduce you to this standout pattern (and its clever creator) that has quilters raving.
Roomy, Reliable, and Ready-to-Go - This bag is BIG. We’re talking 19 inches wide and 30 inches tall, with a nice 5-inch depth. That means this beauty can handle a grocery run, a pile of library books, or your latest quilting project. It’s roomy without feeling like you’re hauling a duffel bag.
But here’s what really makes it fun: you can show off your favorite fabrics. Have a fat quarter bundle you’ve been hoarding for the perfect project? This is it. The tote was designed with quilters in mind, so you get the joy of piecing those gorgeous prints together in a practical, everyday bag.
The construction is straightforward and beginner-friendly—no scary techniques, just satisfying steps. The body is made from pieced panels that let your fabric choices shine, and the lining gives it a neat, polished finish. There’s some simple quilting involved (and you can totally get creative with it).
Want to make yours pop? Sandy suggests adding hand-quilted circles with chunky Perle thread for extra texture. You can stick to the pattern as written or make it your own with bold stitching and playful color combinations. Either way, it’s a relaxing project that comes together faster than you think.
Created by Someone Who Quilts - Behind the pattern is Sandy S., the mind behind ThaiCharmLLC. Her patterns are known for clarity, friendly guidance, and a down-to-earth tone that crafters appreciate. Whether she’s offering tips on unique quilting methods or encouraging community shares, Sandy brings heart to every project.
The Stellar Tote isn’t just another bag—it’s a canvas (pun intended) for your creativity. Play with colors, try different quilting styles, and make something that’s truly yours. Plus, when you finish, you’ll have a gorgeous, functional tote that’s ready for errands, travel, or showing off at your next quilt guild meeting.
