'Christmas through The Year' for May

Yes, it's that time again...

This month, I've used some 'when did I buy that & why' fabric, to make some handy & stylish carry bags... great for those times when you're doing a few errands... or only need a few items from the supermarket... or even to carry some crafty stuff to a group day or Retreat!
They're very similar in capacity & proportions to the enviro-bags that can be bought from Coles or Woolies here in Oz.
Such a time-saver to use robust cotton tape for the handles.

 They're now folded, labelled & stashed away in the Giftie Box... woo hoo!

Have you been a busy little Elf making Christmas gifts? I'd love you to share them here!
Linky open until midnight 21 May.

These bags would definitely come in handy for shopping trips. Here in my neck of the woods, the voters voted to ban plastic bags so now you bring your own or buy cheap plastic bags to put your groceries in.
