I thought it was time I practiced what I was preaching so I used some of the Autumn Leaves designs from this site to make a holder for plastic bags. I used the design in the link twice with one mirrored and put just the leaves from another one of the set underneath to connect them.

Gorgeous design, love the mirroring effect.......great job, Sue..........

Very nice bag! I need a bag for my bags, I should do one too.

Even though most of us no longer use these bags for their original intent, they still make great storage for many different household items. Lovely embroidery.

I was wondering what else you use these for? I may need more than one. lol! Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you!

I love that design and stitching it twice makes it even more impressive.
It makes this useful bag pop!

Oh blast...I thought it was and we were going to have to guess who was the recipient...it's very pretty :) Leaha

LOL

even if you dont use plastic bags ,you could still store your calico bags in the holder ,or I made one for a friend and she keeps her cleaning rags in her's , very nice work Sue

very nice

Love these...I used them in an Autumn table topper quilt...

love it great job :):)hugs

So lovely...Great work

great design....very nicely done!

Love the leaves, thank you Sue....I use my bag for plastic bags too, I made them for 3 DIL's....

Very pretty preacher! I like it. That's a gorgeous design. I've been perusing my stash of designs for the Cute Birthday exchange and think I have finally settled on one, or two, maybe three. ;)
My daughter bought me one for Christmas, but the only time I use them is for disposing of dirty diapers. I hope those days are waning quickly. I'm about over the dirty diaper detail. In the last 7 years I have had a 6 month break.

I don't think you'd choose to have it any other way!

Lovely Sue. We have to buy any poly bags we use when shopping and the vast pile we had is long gone. I stock up when shopping in England which isn't often. The second use of a poly bag is many and I never thought I would miss them but I am not going to keep buying each time I shop. Great use of a design from here

That will happen here in England soon. We always take reusable bags shopping, but we do still get a few plastic bags.

Lovely design Sue, stitched out to perfection.
Hugs Pam.

lol good job Sue, ~hugs~

Very nice.

Excellent piece!

Very pretty, and practical! Those bags are handy, aren't they.

What a good idea and pretty too. As usual clever you, Jo

This is lovely, a holder for plastic bags is on my to do list too.
