Tutorial 8 - Easy to make grocery bag from old T-shirt

This is a good way to recycle old or unwanted T-shirts. We will make a handy grocery bag; and it's foldable too! :)



Let's get started! :)
 1)  Cut off the sleeves and neckline of the T-shirt. (I made the first T-shirt bag with a U opening, For this one. I will make a V opening.)


2)  Turn T-shirt to the wrong side and reinforce the shoulder and side seams.


3)  Take a piece of elastic band (about 5 inches), fold in half and tack to the lower right-hand corner of the bag. Turn bag over to the wrong side and sew the opening close with a 1/2 inch seam allowance.




Completed bag!

4)  To store, fold bag into half lengthwise, then fold again and roll up. Use the elastic band to secure.





Hope you like this simple project! :D
