Shopping bags

This is my favorite one I made today, after my sister went home.
I was glad i could remember how to do it on my own!


This is what the bag looks like all folded up!







So my amazingly wonderful sister came to visit this weekend and after the kids went to bed every night she taught me how to make these awesome reusable shopping bags!! we used scrap fabric and sheets from the thrift store!! they are really easy, you use a plastic bag as a pattern. they even fold up into a little pocket on the front! i have been trying to use fewer plastic bags, i think this will do the trick! I'm so lucky to have such an awesome sister. also thanks to my SIL for teaching Sarah how to make the bags!!

sis-
I don't know, there is something to be said for just being able to pull your hair up in a ponytail. i do miss that. but you do look super cute with shorter hair too...

I would love it if you taught a class on how to do those. Even if it was just to me.
