Boy, trick or treating has been so hit or miss anymore. Last year was fairly busy
but this year only 1 group of 6 middle schoolers. 1 group!!!
Hubby says I need to make an apron from the Pin-Up Witches fabric. In fact he insisted! LOL where's Georgann when you need her advice??!! :(

I can't believe the price! We could all start making our own recycled shopping bags and help the planet at the same time...but why make them rich at the same time?? wow

I went to the ecobags.com site.... thanks for the info! since I crochet I see that it could easily be made with cotton yarn. Perhaps we could start a new thread about how to make bags .... for shopping, recycling.. etc. I have seen a free pattern from the cotton yarn also.
What do you think Sharon? A topic of this?
I also have seen a site on how to crochet the plastic shopping bags into things...

Linda, I think that it is a good idea. Many of the supermarkets are not using plastic bags anymore. I go to a store, and they give incentives for individuals who bring in their own bags. They have a weekly drawing for $25.00 free groceries. I haven't won yet, but hope to.
