Doing My Part



Remember this grocery bag I made back in April? I never got around to showing you the rest of the bags I made. That's because I never got around to finishing them. I found them in my "work in progress" pile and I was very disappointed to find that all I was pending was attaching the handles. So I dug them out and finished them up last night.





I used Keyka Lou's pattern which is simliar to the design of the plastic bags given at grocery stores but about twice as big (and reusable!!). Here's my little model showing you how large they are.



These are finally off my to-do list! Onto another unfinished project and some more swap items. Enjoy your Wednesday!

Linking up here.

  9. Those are great! I plan to make some "green" bags and those are ideal size, etc. Could even line them and put a zipper on top for hot days like now. When I get a space for my sewing area....almost there.

  13. It would be nice to have a little pouch that the folded bag would fit into that you could put in your purse.
