Why? you ask! My DD made me a beautiful shopping bag. Not so much for grocery shopping, but I take it with me to the mall or the fabric store. It's classy, unlike most of the reusable grocery bags you can buy for $1.

So here are a couple of ideas for you . . .

Shopping bag using a plastic shopping bag for the pattern.

"Originating from Japanese culture where it promotes caring for the environment and reducing waste; Furoshiki is the eco-friendly wrapping cloth. Using techniques similar to origami, it can be used for gift wrapping, grocery shopping or simply as decor."
