I finished the bag - Heather, who was my partner on the Thrifty Swap made me a beautiful bag and posted a tutorial which I followed. This is my attempt, made from fabric scraps and the lining is one of those cotton shopping bags White Stuff hand out with your purchase. I think I will keep going and make some more - how lovely it will be to do the weekly shop with these instead of plastic carrier bags!
Oh, they are very pretty! Most of the time, I forget my bags at home when I shop. I'm going to try to remember! Well done!
ReplyDeleteIt`s like Groundhog Day on Blogger today - all the comments I posted the other day have disappeared!
ReplyDeleteI love your bag, Betty - such pretty colours and what a great idea to use the cotton bag for a lining - mind if I pinch it? Have a good weekend. x
Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI can't take credit for this idea - Heather at thepatchworkheart-heather.blogspot.com invented these and sent me one - I just followed the tutorial she gave out during the Thrifty Week to make my own - take a look at her blog, she makes lovely things. Bettyx
