Over the weekend I had a sudden burst of inspiration to make a grocery bag. I used this tutorial here, but I obviously modified it to only use one piece of fabric for the exterior. I highly recommend this tutorial and I will definitely use it again. The fabric is a piece of canvas that I have had for years - now I want to find more and make a whole set! It's by Jessica Jones of How About Orange, from her very first line. I lined it with 2 plain white cotton dishtowels I had bought at Target on clearance. I also put a pocket on the inside, for coupons, keys, etc. I used my bag this week and I'm happy to report it fit a bunch of groceries with no trouble! I'm planning on whipping up a mini version for small purchases and if I can find more of this fabric, I will definitely buy it and make more larger versions as well :)
