Description:

The start of a new year is always a time of reflection on the past year and thinking about improvements for the next year. So let's resolve to go a little "greener" in 2009 with some reusable grocery bags. As group members, we surely all love food, so let's do our part to be a little more eco-friendly when we're grocery shopping and minimize using plastic bags!

You will:

  • Have 1 partner

  • Mail 1 handmade, reusable shopping bag

  • I've left plenty of time for your bag to be sewn after partners are assigned. For those who don't sew but would like to receive a handmade bag, it's also acceptable to purchase a nicely handmade bag to send to your partner. Etsy is a great place to find cool reusable bags. :-)

  • Send a little note with your package to make it a little more personal!

Let's start off 2009 with a fun swap and hopeful wish for a healthier planet.

@Keti also asked if the bag could be knitted rather than sewn. Good question. And that sounds FABULOUS to me!

Quick question, are you running two swaps for this? If so, I am also signed up for Going Green in 2009: Reusable Handmade Bag

Of course, after I read the descriptions again, I see my oversight. Regardless, I am still doing both!! Silly me.

Oops, sorry it took me so long to see your comment @Fittzwm . You're right, there are two swaps. This one for handmade and the other for store bought. I'm doing both too. ;-)
