The shopping bag


The bag I started Tuesday and finished the next day.

As I said in my previous post, I learned from this bag. The difference in weight of the two fabrics means the bigger pocket sags more than it should. The bag is also rather large and I am not sure grocery store clerks would be good at using it. However, I had a good idea for it last night. It will make an excellent farmers' market bag. The bigger pockets can be used for green bags and maybe lists and for my wallet. Possible also for some veggies or fruits that shouldn't get squashed in the big part. The small pockets can hold change. I think that will make transactions easier at the stands.

What you can't see in this pic is that the bag is lined with the alternate material. It looks really nice inside and that extra layer means it's strong enough to haul heavy veggies.
