what a great way to dress up an ugly bag .... I took it all apart & turned it inside out & then embroidered the great applique Shamrocks from Brittsgran & now I will carry this bag because it looks better then the agriculture sign lol.

I guess it would help if I showed you the original bag lol

Clever idea may have to copy your idea. I just bought a large bag of rice that is fabric and has a zip at the top and handles. Lots of writing on front and back.
