Santorini Tote printed pattern
Santorini Tote printed pattern
Newly updated 7/2021 with a cutting chart, new diagrams, and fresh links. The original pattern (2016) is still great and works, I've simply updated and refreshed everything.
The Santorini Tote is a great bag to make especially if using unconventional materials such as vinyl or cork.
Three size options are included in the pattern: small or purse size, medium, and large. Finished sizes are approximately (will depend on your bottom corners) 16" x 13", 19" x 16", and 21" x 17".
Pattern pieces are NOT included in the printed booklet - they are rectangles, very easy to measure and cut. If you need pattern pieces please email help@sewhungryhippie.com and we will send you a file.
The video sew-along link is in the pattern so you can follow along easily.
Here is a video montage of various Santorini Totes in the wild.
This bag features a zipper top closure as the main bag opening, optional zipper pockets on the outside and inside, and you can use almost any type of straps or handle you wish, including my sew-able leather straps and webbing.
Made for leather, faux leather, vinyl, canvas, cork, duck cloth, & quilting cotton----- all work fabulously.

1/2 YD FOCUS fabric in quilting cotton, canvas, duck cloth, vinyl, upholstery fabric, or faux leather for exterior and straps. OR 1 roll vinyl (18" x 54")

Shipping & Returns
Shipping & Returns
Hello! We ship Monday - Friday. On US Federal Holidays no mail moves - you *may* see a label print, but it will leave the next mailing day. If we take a short break for vacation, it is announced ahead of time on all social media channels and in the newsletter. Are you signed up for my emails? They often contain treasures!
Orders will ship within 72 hrs if everything is IN STOCK. Super huge orders can take 3-5 days (these are usually wholesale orders and probably don't pertain to you).
Please keep shipping insurance (Package Protection) in your cart. If you take it out, you will have to file your own claim with USPS or UPS. While mistakes with the Carriers are rare, they do happen and it's best to have full coverage.
PRE ORDERS ship as stated in the listing -- usually these take some time to arrive. IF YOU COMBINE in stock items with a preorder they will ship TOGETHER at one time. Make a separate order if you need in-stock items sooner. Thanks!!
We ship USPS First class mail and Priority Mail always, never ground. We ship UPS if you choose UPS, OR if it's more economical and faster than USPS.
We DO ship to Canada through USPS or UPS if you choose it. We do NOT cover import fees. It is worth an email if you're concerned about the cost, before placing your order. I will weigh and estimate cost before processing.
Local pick up is an option! Our store is located at 4860 Larson Beach Rd in McFarland, WI. We are open Wednesdays and Saturdays 12-4.
Our mail system is pretty amazing when compared to the rest of the world and we are so grateful to the Carriers that make it happen!
Vinyl is usually rolled and either wrapped in tissue or a protective bag, and sent that way. Some vinyl (soft metallic and moonglow for example) can be folded without causing damage, you can opt to iron it from the back side as well. In any case, if your vinyl arrives with wrinkles you can simply place it in the sunshine OR use a hair dryer to warm it flat again, or iron it (wrong side only). If you think your vinyl is damaged, please email me and I will take care of you. 😊
**Soft metallic vinyl, Stardust, croc, and Moonglow vinyl CAN be ironed from the wrong side. See my Guide for Sewing Vinyl for more info.
If I made a mistake on your order OR if something arrives damaged, email me so I can fix it. The Sew Hungryhippie team strives for perfect but we are humans & are training new employees... Thank you for your grace. help@sewhungryhippie.com
