Step Thirteen:
Cut the pattern along the lines so that you can trace in the details of the cow.

Step Fourteen:
Using your fabric paint and brush, paint the black areas of your cow. You can use regular acrylic paint but if you want the ability to wash the tote bag, you will need to use fabric paint.

Step Fifteen:
Paint the white areas and finish with the peach on the udder. Clean up any edges.

Finished Product:
You have just created the greatest Folk-Art Tote bag ever. Use it for books, running shoes, or even lunch!
