Time for some pictures that aren't quite so depressing....
Remember how I went to the Goodwill to get "practice" material for sewing? Here is a pillowcase turned into a reusable grocery bag, lined with some other cheap material that came from somewhere else. This thing is solid. I could carry home a lot of canned food in this bag. So, with this little project, not only do I "REDUCE" the number of plastic bags polluting the earth, I also "REUSE" an old pillowcase that I would have normally never bought to dress my pillows. Now if only I can remember to take this bag with me to the store! The pattern came from this website dedicated to reducing the use of plastic bags. I added the lining to make it a little sturdier.
