These heavy-duty travel bags or totes are useful. I’m taking note.

For years now, Brenda has traveled with the canvas bags that wear well and works to hold just about everything she piles into a carry-on bag (she even takes one to the beach, although misses the thin sail material one we had years ago). I don’t think she buys any of them at full price, but finds them on-sale or at a discount … unlike her brand-name handbags (purses).
I took note of them over the winter and thought that making one might be a project – for sewing practice. I’m not sure I’m ambitious enough to tackle recovering furniture or cushion making again … but it might be nice to work on something smaller like a duffle bag or a tote bag. For now, I’m just collecting a few ideas … and thinking someday maybe getting my granddaughters interested in such a project? 😉
