I’m working on earning the expert level in Cleaning Up, Shopping Green. I am hosting a reusable shopping bag swap. You can choose to purchase a sturdy, reusable bag or sew one for the swap. Either is acceptable. I’m posting pictures of the instructions that I will be using for the swap. Sign ups until April, 10th. Partners assigned April 11th. Mail by April 20th.
Please let me know if you would like to join! Thanks for helping me earn this last level for the badge!! :) |

| Morning Karen, I would like to join this swap. Great idea, I have been thinking I need to start again using my shopping bags. I do dislike the plastic ones they have at the grocery store. Thanks for hosting. |
Farmgirl Hugs & May all your Wishes come true.

| Count me in Karen. I use my reusable bags for so many things. I always have a good stash in all the vehicles. |

| Yay, Sherry and Julie!! I’ve got you both down! Here in Washington State we have to pay for bags now. They are .08 cents each but still, it adds up! So I always have them with me! :) |

Sherry, your darling tote that you made arrived today and I love it!! It is so cute and you did a great job too. Thanks too for the notepad. I love keeping one beside my keyboard to write down notes that just come up. I would post a photo, but th new software on my Apple won't let me save photos like I used to and the way they are saved do not translate into a photo on MJF site. I am hoping to get some help soon. Knowing me, it is most likely something simple and I am the one who just doesn't get it!! LOL!!
Your package mailed today and I hope you like yours as well.
Thank-you Karen for hosting this fun swap here at the HenHouse ! |

Sherry -
I made a slouch bag, and I have a feeling the way the straps were made was similar to your pattern. It worked out, and I may use the method again, but it was somewhat interesting, at first, to see what the presentor was doing. LOL! |
