Hi everyone!

I've been experimenting with different earth-friendly materials recently in an attempt to create some "green" shopping bags. Inspired by a pattern in a past issue of MaryJanes Farm magazine, I tried my hand at creating my own pattern and trying it out!
However, I would love to find some more....

I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies had any favorite patterns you like to use?
Thanks!

Love,
TennesseeCrafter

Thanks so much Stephanie! I am definitely going to be checking and trying these patterns out. :-)

You are pretty close to us! (We are about two-and-a-half hours west of you.) All of us in my family absolutely LOVE that area of TN...we go hiking there at least once a year, and we have some friends who live about an hour east of you, in Cherokee, NC.

Thank you so much for visiting my blog! I just got on yours, and I am going to be following. :-)

Have a nice evening,
Shannon

Hi Shannon,

Greetings from another Tennessee gal! I'm in the Smoky Mountains... Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge/Sevierville area...so nice to meet you.

If you prefer sewing...
There is supposed to be over 50 patterns here:

If you crochet..here's some free patterns. You will have to register first to access them.

Do a search for "Market Bag" and it'll pop up a few.

Here's a blog that has a lot of free patterns.

Sweet Southern Hugs,
Stephanie
