Hi all, I wanted to share with you a project that popped into my head yesterday. I am so very anxiously awaiting my Stitching Room book and had a flash of Princess Mater inspiration. Here is what I came up with. I call it Princess Mater's "Green" Grocery Bag....it is canvas and will help to cut down the amount of plastic that I bring home from the store. I had a blast making this!IMG]http://i149.photobucket.com/albums/s77/beehavenmaven/Princessmaterbag.jpg[/IMG]
Keep Smiling.....Bev

Beverly-
Your canvas bags are wonderful! I would be proud to go grocery shopping with one of those over my arm!
Have you seen that amazing canvas bag that MaryJane sells too? Canvas bags are always so useful! Grocery Shopping, diaper bags, organizational around the house, going to the beach... you name it and you can use a canvas bag for it! Good luck with the Etsy site!

I tried to leave a note on your blogs, but it wouldn't let me sign in for some reason, anyway....too funny about your horses!!! AND can I borrow some of that labor? I have a bunch of trees down from hurricanes that are turning into critter apartments! LOL
also, got thinking about your bags. Did you ever think of doing up enough to take to a farmer's market? Might go really well there.
