    ^ That's very nice. How long did it take you?

    It's hard to say because I got interrupted a few times. I'm thinking that it would take me an hour to cut out and sew without interruptions. There are three pieces of fabric and lots of zigzag stitches. I've always been slow. Others could do it faster.

    Only one hour? Woosh. Good job! I remember it used to take me Mum three months to make a scarf.

    It takes me three months after I buy the fabric to get motivated most of the time.

    Yes, I'm saving the planet and saving money. I'll reuse them again and again except the ones I send to friends; friends can reuse them. Now if I had children at home, I couldn't put them under the tree until time to open presents. Last year I asked the grandkids to return the bags to me. Also, last year, I put Lincoln Log canisters in king size pillowcases and tied a knot.

    "Hail him who saves you by his grace,
    and crown him Lord of all."
