I have been wanting to make this bag for a long time! I did not practice first but I still think it turned out great and will be so useful. Sometimes the key is to just make the bag and start using it! I have been using my own bags at the store for a awhile- years! I love it because...
1) It's better to not use all those single use plastic bags. UGH to so much plastic in our lives!
2) I love not having all those bags around my house- yes, I recycle them but even better not to even have them in the first place.
3) I love having my pretty bags to fill instead of ugly plastic ones! YAY!
