    Green bags i have made --10 in all, 6 of the green and white striped and the rest of different blues 2 each color. I have a variety of sizes in the green bags and have now decieded upon 17x17 inch with about 5 &1/2 inch opening (sides).

    They are made of very good fabric the green is a uphostery material for patio furniture and the blue is trigger. They should wash and wear very good.

    The embroidery pockets are for giftbags ---to much effort for everyday use for me. The pockets evolved to hold coupons and such.

    Trying to go green and help the enviroment, I think they will made good Christmas presents. Sewbusy

    So cute and I absolutely adore the blue with the tomato print! Is that material you had on hand, went out to purchase, or did you print on the computer?? Great job.

    Chele,
    that's a fabric pattern? It looks so realistic, I thought she might have printed on the computer from a magazine photo. Very cool material!!
