I use a lot of bags. I carry my samples in them so I have bags of notions, bags of books, bags of buttons, suitcases of fabric, bags of fabric and boxes of fabric. I know, it sounds pretty wonderful, and it is. But in order to keep things organized, yet easy to work with and find at a drop-of-a-hat, I have a multitude of bags. Now, I do have some pretty nice bags. I have a hot-pink bag I got at the Body Shop 3 years ago, that is the envy of many women. I have managed to sew and ebmroider 2 very nice bags. And yet the other day I find myself carrying samples into a store in a Mandarin Restaurant bag; not the height of style and fashion. With a few empty minutes on my hands I decided to make a new bag. I found a great tutorial on this site: http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=177482.0#axzz2YsoTJpLS for a bag based on a simple grocery bag, with the option of folding it into its own pocket. What more could you need?
