    Default Made my first grocery store bag!

    I am SEW excited! I bought camo canvas material last weekend and this is what I made. I have enough for a second one too!!!

    I know it doesn't seem like a big deal, but to me, it is!!!

    So cute! I love the camo material! I just made a blue camo bag for a friend who absolutely loves camo! Wasn't sure how a camo purse or bag would turn out, but it turned out great and yours is absolutely adorable!

    Wow you did a good job! You should be proud and excited. I also love the camo, and the canvas material should hold up quite nicely to lots of uses.
