These turned out so cute! I used the 40 lb feed bags for these. I have a huge pile of feed bags that I just knew I'd figure out what to do with some day. If anyones interested I'll give you instructions.

I have posted the instructions on our Facebook page for everyone who is asking.
Have fun!

I would love the instructions! I have been saving a 40lb bag for months just trying to figure out what size would be best, how to make the most of the bag, etc. Could you email me?

So cute!!!

Thank you,
Darlene

I feel a little stupid. I looked at Etsy and found a million feed bag totes there. All you smart women are way ahead of me! I thought I was being wonderfully brilliant and came up with a brand new idea. Oh, well. I had fun making them and they sure come out cute. And maybe putting the idea out here on MaryJanes Farmgirl Connection more people will see them and get motivated to make some of their own.

I have to agree with the group...these are Great! I am going to have to make a few myself, they would be great gift bags too. Now you just need to share the instructions for all of us...I guess none of us had seen them before either since we are so impressed so don't feel stupid Laurie.
I enjoy all the ideas I get on here...they motivate me for some winter projects.

I made those with a dog food bag. I even posted here:

I am not an expert on sewing, but it's on there anyway.
