I've been meaning to make nice shopping bags for about two years, and I finally sat down yesterday afternoon and did it. I wanted something beautiful to carry all the groceries and these are way better than the crumpled paper sacks I've been using.
I made each bag with less than 1/3 of a yard of fabric. I used some upholstery scraps that I had in my cabinet, so I didn't have to buy anything!
Cute, especially the one with the chicken on it. Would be perfect for shopping at the farmer's market.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a pattern you can share to make the bags?
ReplyDeleteLovely - and so practical... Did you take the standard commercial bag as your pattern?
ReplyDeleteI just hacked it out and stitched it together, but it was so easy, I'll put a simple pattern and tutorial together soon!
DeleteOh these are clever.....just what I need infact!
ReplyDeleteI love these so much I want to make some. Can you please do a tutorial?
