Great shopping bag, there is nothing wrong with recycling everything, I do as much as I can. Can't stand to see waste, money is to hard to come by.

Love the bag, would love to have one like it. DH is a big man, I could do a nice sized bag out of his outgrown pants.

I have seen somewhere a blouse or jacket that was stuffed to make a sofa pillow.

Neat idea! I that it looks great and will be very sturdy! Nothing wrong with recycling, our grown kids are amazed at some of the repurposing we do. It is neat to taken a throwaway and make something new out of it!

I agree....saving the earth. So many people don't think twice about throwing stuff, anything, in the garbage.

How about a pillow???? I have pillows made from sweaters that both of my grandmothers wore.

You could make a stuffed bear or bunny from it. They are really cute
