Boots canvas tote bag

I did this for my niece who's b-day is coming up in 2 days. I finished just in time too. I made the pattern from an image on the www.
Here's the pattern link: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=2859
I used DMC Soluble Canvas and 2 strands of DMC floss. 3 strands would have been better coverage (I can see some blue in places), but I did Wubbzy with 3 strands and didn't like how it looked. I'm much happier with this one.
The bag came in a pack of 5 different colors for around $5 from Hobby Lobby. They seem perfect for stitching on. They're thick enough to be sturdy but not so thick that it's difficult to stitch on.
I might be doing another one soon with a Disney Princess.
