I have been working a few projects

There are a lot of plastic bags that are being used that easily could be replaced by recycled cloth bags. Grocery shopping for example- I went to the store the other day and observed the grocery line for about 10 minutes as I waited to be helped. There were 14 people and they had 8 bags on average. One lady insisted on being double bagged. She had one bag of chips and a loaf of bread in one bag and was mad that the lady at the counter for not double bagging it. I went up to line and put my stuff down on the counter. Under my stuff, I had my cloth bag. The lady didn't see it right away and grabbed a plastic bag to use. I told her 'no thank you, I have my own' and she threw the plastic bag in the trash. She could have used it for the guy behind me. I was so excited when he said 'I'll use it for my stuff'. I have been working on some cute little totes for my grocery shopping. Why not shop in style. Who wants to be a conformist and use the plastic bag that has the store advertising on it?

Hello!

I figured I would start a little blog about one of my passions- SEWING!
