Another great place to shop for Tote Shopping products is Amazon. They have more than just books! Here are some more information for Tote Shopping: It's very easy to make your own reusable shopping bag or tote. All you need is some sturdy fabric (such as heavy duty calico) and some cotton webbing or braid for the handles. Suitable Fabrics & Notions As noted above, you should choose a sturdy fabric such as heavy duty cotton or calico. To make one bag you'll need half a yard of fabric (assuming the fabric width is 43" or more). For metric sewers, you'll need ½ metre of fabric if the fabric is at least 106cm wide. It may also be worthwhile to invest in some quality thread, as you may be carrying some heavy items in your bag, and you cannot afford to have your bag break due to cheap quality thread! For the handles, I recommend cotton webbing or braid about 1" wide (2.5 cm). You'll need 48" of the webbing (or 122 cm). To Make Your Pattern There are only 5 pieces to cut out. 2 rectangles form the bag's front and back, there is one long piece that joins the front and back (to give the bag depth), and then 2 pieces for your handles. Lay your fabric face down, and then draw out your rectangles as follows: Bag sides (you'll need 2 of these) 13½" wide by 14½" tall (this gives a ½" seam allowance). In metric, this is 2 rectangles 34cm by 36cm (with a 1cm seam allowance). Then you'll need long rectangle measuring 42½" by 5½" (or 106cm by 12cm). Lay them out as shown in this diagram www.sewing4dummies.com/images/bag-layout.gif and then cut out. Take your webbing and cut 2 handles each 24" long (or 61cm). To Make Up Basically, the long piece of fabric needs to be sewn along three sides of each rectangle (as shown in this diagram www.sewing4dummies.com/images/bag-sew.gif). Place one rectangle along the side of the long piece (right sides together) and start sewing. Stitch slowly when turning the corners of the rectangle. I strongly recommend that you sew each seam twice for extra strength, especially at the corners. Now attach your handles to the bag and sew on by sewing a rectangle, then sew a cross in the middle (see this diagram www.sewing4dummies.com/images/bag-handles.gif). Again, it would be wise to double stitch these seams. It doesn't matter whether you attach the handles to the inside or the outside, it's up to you. And that's it. Very simple.

I'm looking for a group or organization that gives away free canvas tote bags? I'm wanting to do my part in becoming more environmentally sound. I'm wanting to start using large canvas tote bags while doing my shopping. Does anyone know of any group or organization that is giving out free canvas tote bags for this purpose? THANKS!!!
I don't know of an organization. But if you join freecycle in your area, you can ask if anyone has any they don't use and would be willing to give to you. Freecycle is all about taking our junk (unused treasures) and finding new homes for them, thus keeping them out of landfills. Probe's peek at Charlie in paradise Thanks for visiting!
