I saw this on 'Sewing with Nancy' yesterday. Mary Mulari cut off mens shirt sleeves and used them for gift bags - really cute! Out of the front of the shirt, she cut out a child's apron.

She also took old cloth tablecloths, cut them in half, and made waist-aprons.

Just a little something new, for me anyway.

show us some pics of your bags!!!
great idea :thumbup:

i saw that too. i thought it was so neat :thumbup:

Pictures!! Pictures!!

Like piggy says....pictures please!

lolol...I haven't made any yet, just saw the show. If I had any men's shirts hanging around I would make one. I could buy a cheapie shirt to try it out...

Hey, I just had a thought: use an old vinyl tablecloth to make baby bibs!
I want to make some grocery bags and not bring quite so many plastic ones home too.
great ideas, thanks for sharing butterfli19. :-D

Thanks for sharing. What a great idea.

I loved that show :D:D:D
She sure knows how to recycle a lot of different items!!!

I would love to see some of the bags! Sounds like a great idea!
