Coffee Time

What can you do with a free morning???

Well....Start with one coffee sack from Hawaiii...

Arnold's cousin, Colinda was home from Hawaii this weekend.

She brought this with her...


 asking if I could make her a bag with it


with these as a liner...


After some selective slicing...


and some Kraftex paper


It started to take shape


Added some vintage handles



I hope she likes it!!

If not...I can always get another sack when we go in January...

They always make more coffee.


She should be able to get a lot of farmer's market in this one!!

  5. Two things, Christa. #1 I just read your Stitched Together story on the Missouri Star email. Well done! #2 Six years ago I bought an old cloth sack in a thrift store in Australia and didn't know what to do with it. Thanks to you, I have the answer: a bag!
