Back-to-school is right around the corner! Here's a fun and easy tutorial to make a tote for all your doll's favorite art supplies, so she can take them with her everywhere.
I decided to use a person-sized pad of tracing paper, and cut it down to doll-size; but you can sometimes find little memo pads in the stationery section that are already the right scale.
Now that you have your materials and tote-ables selected, it's time to start sewing!
To give your finished tote a little more stability, use some interfacing on one piece of backing fabric.
Next, prep and attach your pockets.
Then, it's time to add the backing.
Congratulations! Now your doll is ready to make art anywhere!
Let us know in the comments if you make this -- I'd love to see your version!

This is absolutely adorable. Can’t wait to make it for my grandaughter
omg this is the cuteset
Sm-adakcb what I was looking for-ty!
C Gegier, normally you can find mini pencils in kid’s colouring packs, or sometimes you can buy them in packs at stores. Otherwise you can make your own pencils (they won’t really work), or use some old ones that have been sharpened so much that they’re the right size!
I would sew the tote first, and then cut the pad down to the size needed to fit in.
Maybe u could make a video that shows u how to make it also, cause i’m having a hard time understanding how to sew this but I really want to make it for my doll.
