20 minutes is s exactly how it fast it takes to make these adorable multicolor tote bags. That’s like as much time I take to shower. PurlBee shows us on their website how this handy bag can be assembled in just less than half an hour using bright and colorful fabric from Echino Ni-Co collection. Great as a personalized shopping bag!
