Yes, yes ANOTHER tote
Ladies over at Stitch Lounge have a tute for a sew your own shopping bag. What I esp. like about this one is it has a little tie/snap thing-y so you can fold it up & stash it in your purse. PFD of tute can be found here on their blog.

Another good PDF tute. Evie S. offers up a template for a paper cd case. Cheap & cheerful! You could burn a "mix cd" of your party's tunes & give it out at the end of the night as a party favour!
