I wanted to try out some other techniques than cross stitch, so took the opportunity to make a grocery bag, which I needed anyway.
The bag itself was really easy to make – I simply used an old plastic bag as a pattern – but the stitching (chain stitch) turned out to be a little less fun than I expected. I don’t know what made it so, but it was only thanks to pure stubbornness I could finish it. But at least now that it’s done I like it.
The bag is completely made out of material I already had at home. The fabric is a piece of some old synthetic fabric that I bought at a thrift store because i liked the colour but would be too uncomfortable to use in clothing. Oh, and if anyone wants to know, the font is Guttenberg MF, available for free on dafont.com.
