Or shopping size
Now that plastic shopping bags will no longer be available at the end of the month it will be necessary to have reusable bags available at all times and while I do have a good supply of fabric shopping bags none of them can be folded up and tucked into a pocket on the front keeping them neat and tidy in my handbag. This problem was solved today when I made the above bag and of course I could not stop at one. I have had this aqua fabric in my stash for quite sometime and I thought it would make a pretty bag and even better as it is the colour for this month's Rainbow Scrap challenge.
And after making these two another 3 were cut out. As you can see they are all pinned where necessary and the plan is to sew these up tomorrow.
Back soon and in the meantime

Great bags! So glad to hear they’re banning plastic bags in your area. Wish they’d do it everywhere. Think of how pretty everyone’s bags could be!
Nicely done! Much more fun to shop with pretty bags! *wink*
What lovely bags! I do like to keep a few folded up in my purse as well, and sometimes extra in my trunk.
Oh, now you will be shopping in style! Cute!
We haven't had plastic in my town for years now. I far prefer the fabric kind now. They are prettier and hold so much more. Thanks for sharing yours with Oh Scrap!
Great bags,so handy to have them with you when you go shopping.
Lovely shopping bag! I always try to carry one but often I forget and have to pay extra for plastic one :(.
