    I love this idea! The bag will be machine washable too, which is great for shopping totes.

      @alygarden7879 ปีที่แล้ว

      Have you done your project yet? I'm not a pro...but I have done some sewing... I myself would do straight stich ...or even perhaps a zig zag...or both for extra seal of the hems.... Again, I'm not an expert, but it's how I would do it as a beginner 😊👍
