The Reusable Bag Jackpot!!!

I’ve just found an incredible resource!  I found this website that has links to free patterns (33 of them!!) to make your own grocery bags, produce bags, totes, etc.  All shapes and sizes and materials, including produce bags made from sheer curtain panels (no extra weight – why didn’t I think of that?), a reversible bag with a boxed bottom,  a larger tote with boxed bottom, and many more.  Check it out!

(P.S.  I have to admit that I giggled a little every time I wrote “boxed bottom”.  Hehe.)
