Market bags

Okay, I guess I am obsessed with bags...I have never been obsessed before. I usually function like this- get a bag (or a pair of jeans, or shoes, etc) I like and use it until it just falls apart. I have literally had to throw sneakers into a dumpster to tear myself away from the ragged things. So I have one purse and suddenly about 7 shopping bags! T. has sewn me half and I have knitted the other half. I have also made a number of them for friends and family. It is a very easy pattern- but I love to do it. In a small way, I feel like I really am spreading my personal battle against plastic bags, plus they are pretty.

T. sewed these veggie bags for me and I LOVE them!! They are for items that need their own bag, like beans and peaches. The work wonderfully and people think they are so cute- which they are.
This bag is for my mom.
I know you have been wondering why there haven't been more pics of Sparks lately. So here you are. He has no good reason for his absence- no big project he is working on...By the way, this isn't our couch. Ours is being repaired and this is the loaner they sent us. I feel like we may never see our little beige couch again. In revenge- we are allowing Sparks to sit on the mismatched thing and get his hairs all over it.
