Swimingpool Bag and Terrace Cushions in Cotton Canvas

 My old straw basket, that I used to put my swimingpool stuff in, broke after many years of use. I looked in several markets, and they were too expensive or small, so I decided to make my own bag. 

I used this pattern from the Named book Breaking the Pattern, and I bought the fabric, a beautiful cotton canvas with jungle plants and tigers from Ribes i Casals shop online. I also used some old whitish fabric I had as a lining for the back, and some upholstery foam remnant I had from my car bed project. 

I am totally happy with the result. Both the bag and cushions are perfect and after two summers I can say they are worn and used without complaint.
