Reusable bags!

Reusable bags!  Who couldn’t use one –or a few- of these!?   

A friend of mine, Karina at K Tobin Video, asked me if I could make a few reusable bags for her.  Bags that would be small enough to throw into a purse, or a diaper bag, or to use for snack/ lunch bags.   When I finally got around to making them, I was really pleased with how they turned out! 

After reading Karina’s review, (which was quite complimentary!) a customer asked if I could make matching little bags for her to give as ‘trip toys’ for a girls weekend- so fun!  I put their initial on the bags using their favorite colors with the coordinating color on the interior.  I think they turned out so cute.  Don’t you just love the houndstooth? I do!  

And then some more for little man’s teacher’s for Valentine’s day and filled them with biscotti and dark chocolate!

I made one for my aunt to use as a money pouch for her waitressing job!

I’ve made some with a vinyl lining, and some without.  Some with zippers, some with Velcro.  I’ve made the bags in various sizes: some small enough for to hold just the ‘essentials’ and some that are big enough to use as a cosmetic bag or school supply holder.   These little bags work for anyone and make great gifts too!

I have a feeling I’ll be making lots more of these for myself in the future!  I listed the houndstooth bag (6” x6”) here. 

I’d love to make some for you too!
