Fun at the Grocery Store

Here are the two grocery bags I completed this week.  The red one was done with a heavy decorator fabric and webbing for the handles.

The floral one is a shower curtain and grosgrain ribbon.  I hope it will stand up to a full bag of frozen foods, since that's what I made it for.  This is the test run.  If it works out well, then I will make the next one a little nicer.  (You can't see the shortcuts in the photo!)

The red bag came from a tutorial found here.

The floral one was a combination of tutorials for other bags I've made in the past. 

Can A Woman Have Too Many Bags?

Apparently I don't think so, because this week that is all I have made!  Two grocery bags, two purses is the final count.  This one gave me a little trouble, but now that I've finished it, I could duplicate it pretty easily.

Feeding the Crafting Need

Love this!  I wish it had come out a little bigger.  But it was done entirely out of fat quarters, so that was nice.  Now I know I like the pattern and can experiment with some larger sizes.  =0)

Quilting it's Not

Here is my first EVER painting.  Loved loved LOVED the class.  Looking forward to being able to take another one.  =0)
