Has anyone made canvas totes/grocery bags?
Did you follow someone elses' instructions?
Determine your own size/dimensions?
I don't know how to factor in the size for the folded bottom.

You can take a large *paper* bag, take it apart at the
seams, and use is for a pattern. Just add webbing tape
around the bottom extending into handles.

You Can also go to wild things from Wild ginger, free download and put
in the dimensions you want and get a pattern for a tote bag to suit you.
I made several that way for library books and also made some to suit me
for beach towels. Just decided the height and width you want the soft
ware does the rest.

You're welcome! The only reason I thought of it right away
is because the same discussion came up in the SewBiz list
recently. ;-)
