you catch up on odds and ends of
sewing for the house? In either
case you will like to stitch up a
bag like this one. Everyone seems

these bags on a hanger. I have
one that I use for laundry when

them for closet laundry bags too,
as they are plenty big enough
for shirts. A little girl know has
a small version of one of these in
which she keeps doll clothes
scraps. have also seen them
used for everything from dress
patterns to dust rags.
