A Tote for Me

I decided to make a copy of my favorite grocery shopping bag (my Al Jarir bookstore bag that I bought as a souvenir of Doha the last time I was there; coincidentally the first and only time I have ever experienced an "ice cream headache"). I had to have Craig help me out with some of the mental gymnastics involved at the end but we figured it out and it looks great! Now I have two bags to bring to Home Plus each week. I added a lining and a pocket to mine as the Al Jarir one was just a canvas bag without a lining.

Also, I should note that my thumb is still numb/funny from cutting out those leaves yesterday. I threw out the cheap-o scissors I was using and will buy a new pair from Office Depot next time I'm there. Ouch!

Thanks
