After my first painting class (when I got all of my supplies), I ran home and made a bag to carry my art-board (for lack of a better name). But, I was intimidated by the zipper that I was going to put in and got bored making the straps. So, there it has sat... an unfinished bag for a year now. But, I finally finished it- with velcro instead of a zipper and put a liner in it. Basically I followed the same tutorial that I made my little snack bags with but just in a larger version. All of the fabric I got for free at a ward swap meet. Did I ever mention that I love hand-me-downs?
And, I made some cool bean bags that Dennis LOVES. I made one and was surprised at how much Dennis enjoyed the feel that I quickly finished this project in one night. I look forward to doing math games with them when he gets older. (this was not my idea- I found it online somewhere but can't find the blog again.)

What a clever lady
Your Bag looks great! I love 'hand-me-overs' too. Re-purposing stuff is a favored pastime. altho I have a hard time throwing things away because I may be able to make something out of it.
That bag is awesome, and you need to send me the instructions for the bean bags. My boys would love those!
