PDF – Totesy by UJAMAA BAGETTES
Totesy
Designed by UJAMAA BAGETTES
TOTESY (we say “tote see”) – a smart-looking tote with top bar closure hardware
TOTESY is smart-looking, quick-to-make and not quite a handbag but not just a tote.
TOTESY pattern includes two sizes, CUTIE and BEAUTY. Dress it up or chill it out and both are so quick to make that you might want to make a few.
Two Sizes:
- CUTIE – 8” W at bottom x 10-1/2” H x 4” D (20 cm W x 27 cm H x 10 cm D)
- BEAUTY – 9” W at bottom x 12-1/2” H x 6” D (23 cm W x 31.75 cm W x 15 cm D)
- Strap Drop: 12” for both sizes
Emmaline Bags sells BAGETTES patterns online, and all profits from these pattern sales go directly to the Grandmothers Campaign.

UJAMAA GRANDMAS, a Calgary-based group of volunteers, is part of the Grandmothers to Grandmothers (G to G) Campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation (SLF). SLF works to address the consequences of the HIV/AIDS pandemic upon families and communities in sub-Saharan Africa. The G to G Campaign supports the voices and expertise of grandmothers in Africa, whose leadership is critical in reclaiming hope and rebuilding resilience across their communities. As part of Grandmothers to Grandmothers, UJAMAA GRANDMAS is committed to the Campaign’s three goals:
- to raise awareness
- to build solidarity and
- to mobilize funds for community-based organizations that support African grandmothers and the children in their care.
Since 2004, as a result of a variety of fundraising activities, both handcrafts-related and otherwise, over $1,500,000 has been sent in support of the Campaign. To learn more about UJAMAA GRANDMAS and the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign, visit www.ujamaagrandmas.com.
UJAMAA BAGETTES is a small sub-set of UJAMAA GRANDMAS, raising funds through the sale of pdf patterns and finished products. A very small portion of the proceeds from the sale of patterns is used to offset some of the costs of pattern testing and bag production. The remainder is sent to the Foundation to support our African sisters. BAGETTES’ finished bags are sold at the UJAMAA GRANDMAS annual BAGS, BABIES & BEYOND in Calgary, Alberta. If you have a technical question about this pattern, contact us at [email protected].
