| I am looking for a pattern for a quilted tote that has the zipper set like the Vera Bradley Totes. Can anyone help? |

Good morning KathyBarbara The 2 I have used are Simplicity 5598..it does not call for a zipper but I am sure that you could put one in. The other is McCalls 4118 which does call for a zipper. Hope this helps. Have a great day! If I had known that grandchildren were so much fun, I would have had them first!!

I don't really know what a zipper in a Vera Bradley tote is like...but I found some free patterns here for different bags and zippers Maybe there is something you can adapt... http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/cr_sewing_accessories/article/0,1789,HGTV_3321_1376965,00.html On this page there is a link "Zipper Instructions for Handbags". http://www.allcrafts.net/sewing.htm#freeprojects http://sewing.about.com/library/weekly/aa062300a.htm TTFN from
