Been feeling just a wee bit bad about all the plastic bags I bring home from the grocery store (although now that we have a dog we DO re-use said bags), and it just so happens that the project of the month this month is TO THE MARKET BAGS!! How perfect.
Off to the market to find a fun print with which to make a bag...
I know those ironed plastic bags are blowing up all over the crafting blogs these days, but I guess if I'm going to have them around the house I'd rather use them to pick up dog crap then iron them together to make a new fabric.

i love love love the bag!! nice work! really like it:)
that is such a cute bag Jen! When are you going to start selling your goodies? You are inspiring Jen and oh so talented!...hey did Hazel loose a blue coat? I have one from Simons birthday and just realized it is a child size? Just checking.
That-a-girl! Show off your stuff! Very sweet bag.
omg on the doggie po-po site!
ha! I'm glad you looked at the links...I had a good time looking for a related site...
tell me, seriously, how this can possibly hold enough groceries? i mean, i'm one of those gals that goes and spends $150 and fills up the cart. i try not to return. this little bag would never cut it. i guess i would have to make 10 of them :).
have i told you that i love this bag? great fabric. i have made about 5 of them...and am still going. when i go to trader joes...i take 4. that fits an awful lot of groceries. love it. i've begun taking it shopping for everything...no more plastic, i say!!
sara, you are so right! it only held my veggies. i guess i'll just take it to the ballard market to pick up my fresh foods...
melissa, hip-hip! they are super fun to make, huh? i just picked up that bend-the-rules sewing book and just know i'll be dying for the kids to go back to school so i can spend some time in front of the machine.
