I love handmade tote bags. For this swap you will be making 1 reusable bag for 1 partner. Most of my bags are use with a half of yard of cotton fabric, but I have got some great bags made from pillowcases and that were made with a longer handle and a bag that was about a yard of fabric. That is it. It does not have to be perfect and you can even tailor it to your partners likes (but is not necessary). Just make it something that you would like to receive. If you would like to give ideas of what you would like please list them below just remember that it is just that… and idea to help your partner. You are rating if you get 1 handmade shopping tote.

You can use: fabric, pillowcase, bandanas, t-shirts, sheets. (anything else that you can think of that will work to make a tote bag.)

4.7 ratings or higher. Open to newbie’s (we were all a newbie once)

Does it have to be fabric? I have some that I made crocheted with plastic bags would that be okay?
