Title: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 06, 2010, 11:43:20 PM
So my theme for this year is bags... Jessica made a bag today, and both of our Sarah's have made bags... so let's share them all here!

My first two of the year...  Made on long Knifty Knitter Looms (working on instructions)

For myself

And for Alyssa.

Very neat bags!

Cool, Triss. It is easier to see the detail on Lys' blue one. Those look good

Post by: Jessica on Jan 06, 2010, 11:47:55 PM
Made this one tonight...

(https://www.southernspirithunters.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi95.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fl150%2Fplantqueen%2F100_1508.jpg&hash=69dcb690eea410a257167159923394743f0d08c4)

Knit this one a while back...

That knit one is awesome, a perfect pool bag!
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Jessica on Jan 06, 2010, 11:50:54 PM
It is meant to be a reusable shopping bag (that is what the pattern considered it) but I use it as a beach bag.  Glad you thought it looked like that too.  It works great for it!
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 12:28:15 AM
I got a pattern for reusable shopping bags that I am going to try out.  I also have a picture of a jean square bag on my cell that I am going to copy this week.  Lemme see if I can get that up here.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 12:48:05 AM
This is the bag I want to copy

and here is the flannel material I got today to make bags with along with the jeans I already have.

Post by: landofoz on Jan 07, 2010, 10:37:59 AM
I love that orange and black bag!! I can totally see why you would want to copy it.  It would be a great GS project -- that is just awesome.  The mouse in my head is really burning up his little spinner thingy. 
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 06:26:47 PM
Oh I know Sarah... mine is already going nuts.  I will be getting black and orange flannel if I can find it to make a couple of bags for the kids teachers for an end of year gift. 
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: bestofour on Jan 07, 2010, 07:08:34 PM
I think the girl scouts could sell them.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: landofoz on Jan 07, 2010, 07:28:51 PM
I think the girl scouts could sell them.

That is a really good idea!  The mouse is making his wheel smoke, now!!
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 10:11:37 PM
That is a good idea now that I think about it more.  Our girls are doing a year long community service project where they are making things to give to women in an assisted living home.  They could sew a bag and use the bag as the holder for all of their other gifts.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: bestofour on Jan 07, 2010, 10:15:47 PM
Assisted living is where they are taken out on excursions once in a while so they could use a bag of some sort too.  We knew a person in an assisted living place and she had a blast.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 10:28:05 PM
With what the girls have been making, we figured that the ladies in assisted living would appreciate and be able to use them more than a nursing home.  So far they have canned jelly and made scarves.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: bestofour on Jan 07, 2010, 10:28:57 PM
Yep, they'll love it.  My little friend would love having home made jelly.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 10:38:06 PM
They are planning a lot more and I sure hope we can get to it all.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: bestofour on Jan 07, 2010, 10:41:07 PM
I don't know how you do it Triss, family, school, sub, Girl Scouts.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 07, 2010, 10:42:34 PM
Fortunately they are not all in the same day.  I have grand plans for bags but have not done any since school started this week.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: landofoz on Jan 08, 2010, 10:45:43 AM
I keep having to stop myself, Triss.  I'll go downstairs and think, I should really look at my fabric while I'm down here.  But, I can't start another project right now.  In a week.  I can start a new project in a week!!
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Jessica on Jan 08, 2010, 07:02:32 PM
This one is a little bigger than the first one I made...
(https://www.southernspirithunters.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi95.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fl150%2Fplantqueen%2F100_1513.jpg&hash=28dbcf33ea50cae44cf5aa38cba0312bbef18f83)

This one is the biggest but it is hard to tell because I have yarn in it.

(https://www.southernspirithunters.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi95.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fl150%2Fplantqueen%2F100_1511.jpg&hash=5d82d950380017d82a63ba3d5fa3d8af8ede572d)

I figure that I will make a few different sizes until I decide which size I like the best.  It is always nice to have different sizes anyway.

Post by: Jessica on Jan 08, 2010, 08:09:13 PM
Thanks, Tina.  I am really enjoying making them and the fact that they can be made so quickly is a bonus.  After I get tired of making these, I will look for a more complicated pattern to make.  I'm not sure what I would want yet though so I will wait.

Started work today on my first jean square bag.  Here is my layout for the project.  Whatcha think?

The sides of the bag

Mrs. Fay is a 1st/2nd grade teacher.  I thought it fit well.

Post by: Jessica on Jan 11, 2010, 02:33:30 PM
Looks great, Triss! 

I made another bag on Saturday and took pictures.  I just need to get them uploaded and try to write something with them that makes sense.  I will try to do that tonight.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 11, 2010, 02:45:15 PM
Looking forward to seeing them!

THe sewing on this bag is very fast.  Got one panel done and am working on the next one.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Jessica on Jan 11, 2010, 03:12:28 PM
Can't wait to see it completed!!!
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 11, 2010, 03:35:56 PM
Maybe today, at least the put together part.  It will take a while to get it washed and frayed.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: landofoz on Jan 11, 2010, 03:38:56 PM
Triss, I can't wait to see it finished!  You are killing me here making me wait.  And you are making my urges to craft harder and harder to resist!   :SmileyNailbiting: Must. Remind. Myself:  Girl Scouts.  Cookies in oven.  Make copies.  Finish flyers.  No crafts.  No time.  Stop thinking about crafts!!   :dunno:

Post by: Triss on Jan 11, 2010, 04:41:15 PM
Ok Sarah... here you go.  Well as least as much as I have done.  I need to cut and fray it and add a handle.

The inside of the bag

Bottom... a solid jean bottom was Dan's idea.

Looks great!  I think the solid jean bottom is a good idea.  More durable.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 11, 2010, 05:04:02 PM
I agree Jessica.  I am glad Dan thought of it cuz I had my mind set on piecing one together.  I am also going to make a solid jean handle but I need Lys to find me a pair of her jeans with holes in them.  She has the long legs that will make a good one.  The lil boys jeans were barely long enough for the bottom.

I am very happy with how it turned out.  I have been looking for my snipper tool and cannot find it... may be packed so I will have to get a new set before I can do any more.

I finished my bag today and just in time because Mrs. Fay is headed out today for her surgery next week.  Please keep her in your prayers.

She did like it... I made her cry though.  We sure are going to miss her over the next couple of months.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Jan 24, 2010, 10:03:22 PM
Finished up Lys' bag... it is made from a jean skirt so it was just a few stitches and snips to make it work.  I added a patch of flannel to give it some character.  Still needs a couple of more washings to really make it fray but she wants to use it tomorrow.

I end up using the cute pockets for other things but not a door hanger though it is a good idea and one I am sure I will use in the future... we go through a lot of jeans in a year here.

Nope, no homework this weekend... cannot concentrate on it.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Mar 14, 2010, 07:58:53 PM
I just wanted to post this here as well since it is a bag... should have done that from the beginning.

Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Mar 14, 2010, 08:58:18 PM
Thanks Tina.  I am laying out my next bag.  I need to pick up some material to finish off the very first one I started as well.  I also want to get some ribbon so I can try a couple of Jessica's bags.  Rolling along here.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Mar 17, 2010, 01:06:32 AM
I managed to get a lot accomplished today and tonight.  I sewed up 8 of Jessica's project bags but I could not finish them because I forgot to pick up the ribbon tonight.  I also just finished the final layouts (lining, bottoms, and interfacing) for 2 shopping bags.  I am hoping to have them all finished tomorrow.  I think after these I am going to switch it up and do a jean bag.

They look great, Triss!! How did it go using a knitting needle to put the ribbons through?
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Mar 17, 2010, 02:44:56 PM
I used a yarn needle to pull them through and it worked out perfectly!  I did not have any problems at all because the yarn needle is larger and plastic, it slid right through.

Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Tina on Mar 17, 2010, 07:51:05 PM
That is very pretty, Triss. I think when I go green enough to begin to carry my own bags I will make them. I don't like the sizes available in the stores now. I want a bigger bottom and just bigger. About the size of the paper grocery bags. I want to carry in as much as possible each trip from my car to the house with the fewest trips. I don't want a bag spilling all over in my vehicle so a flat bottom filled with the heavier items is best. 
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Triss on Mar 17, 2010, 07:53:31 PM
Thanks everyone... I was a little worried about the lime green at first but it worked out nice.

Tina, this bad looks sloped but it really isn't and it is quite a bit bigger than a Safeway or WM bag and I believe a lot more sturdy as well with the double fabric and interfacing.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags
Post by: Tina on Mar 17, 2010, 08:21:30 PM
I dislike the Walmart plastic bags for the same reasons I stated before. Things fall out and roll all over the van or the trunk or...
I love my grocer's stand up paper bags so basically I want to sew a sturdy version of those. With handles looped all the way around the bottom, webbing I think. Don't mind me, I have been mentally designing my bag for a while.
Title: Re: Bags, Bags, and more bags

Sounds good Tina.  I still have to test mine and see how they hold up to being in the trunk, etc.  I forgot to take the bug bag into the store the last time I went shopping.

Well the bag made it to the car so that is a step in the right direction.

on the remembering, kate (my daughter) has bags she uses, her "effort to be green" as she calls it, and to remember to take them in, she puts her purse in them when she gets in the car to go to the store.  and in them when  they are emptied in the house to remind her to take them back to the car.  they live in her trunk.  when we are together, she puts my stuff in her bags too.

Yes, it will just take some self-training. I don't carry a purse. California is trying to pass a bag law, a buck a bag tax from any store. So I do need to get it in my future soon.

Target gives you 5 cents off for every reusable bag that you use.  5 cents isn't much but it adds up over time.

Other stores give a discount as well.

Finished my latest bag.

Thanks Tina, that was the original one...I really learned what not to do on it but I am happy with how it turned out.

I made a special bag for Charlie so that he can carry his trains and tracks back and forth to the babysitters on the days I work... He loves it!

Also today I finished up a jean square purse and a jean square lunch bag.  They have to run through the wash and the lunch bag needs a button before I can call either of them complete.

I am thrilled about working... I get 15 hours this week... half days but still.  I am stoked!  Charlie has his bag full of trains and is ready to go.

The hope is to sell some of these bags so I can support my habit.  :grinnnn:

And that raises the question... how much would any of you pay for one of the shopping bags?
