I LOVE TO HAVE BAGS WITH MANY USES AND THIS BAG IS JUST THAT! IT IS THE PERFECT BAG TO TAKE TO THE MARKET, OR OUT FUN SHOPPING. IF YOU NEED AN EXTRA CARRY BAG FOR A TRIP......JUST GRAB THIS SWEET BAG. WHEN YOU USE IT SHOPPING THERE IS NO NEED FOR A PAPER OR A PLASTIC BAG. WE ARE ALL THINKING OF THINGS TO DO TO BE LESS "DISPOSABLE" AND THIS BAG IS A GOOD IDEA. I HAVE MADE IT VERY STRONG SO IT WILL SERVE YOU WELL FOR MANY YEARS. EACH BAG IS FULLY LINED AND THE HANDLES ARE DOUBLE STRENGTH AND DOUBLE OR TRIPLE STITCHED. I HAVE GONE INTO MY "SOON TO BE VINTAGE" OR "ALREADY IS VINTAGE " STASH OF FABRICS AND I JUST LOVE THEM. I HAVE ALSO GIVEN YOU A LARGE INSIDE POCKET AND MY VERY FAVORITE KEY FOB SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO SEARCHING FOR KEYS. THIS BAG CAN BE FOLDED INTO A SMALL SQUARE (ABOUT 6" X 6") SO IT IS EASY TO CARRY WITH YOU OR KEEP IN YOUR CAR. THE BAG IS APPROX. 17 INCHES WIDE AND 18 INCHES TALL. A GREAT MARKET BAG SIZE. I MUST GIVE CREDIT FOR THIS BAG TO MY SWEET AND WONDERFUL GRANNY, FLORA CLARKSON HARRINGTON, SHE ALWAYS HAD HER "SACK" WHEN SHE WENT OUT SHOPPING. USUALLY IT WAS A BAG MADE FROM FLOWER SACK FABRIC. SHE WAS AN ECOLOGIST LONG BEFORE WE KNEW THAT WORD AND SHE ALWAYS HAD MANY USES FOR EVERYTHING AND ALWAYS HAD HER HANDMADE "SACKS" WHERE EVER SHE WENT. THE LITTLE HEART ON EACH BAG TELLS YOU THAT MY HEART IS HAPPY TO DO SOMETHING GOOD FOR ALL OF US. ALL OF MY CREATIONS COME FROM A COMPLETELY SMOKE FREE HOME AND ARE MADE WITH LOVE AND THE VERY BEST CRAFTSMANSHIP AND MATERIALS. ONLY THE BAG IS UP FOR AUCTION, ANYTHING ELSE IS FOR DISPLAY. PLEASE EMAIL ME IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. I JUST LOVE THIS MONKEY FABRIC AND THE PALM TREE FABRIC FOR THE INSIDE, THEY ARE BOTH DECORATOR FABRICS AND VERY HEAVY COTTON. THIS IS A REALLY STRONG BAG. THE PLAID THAT I HAVE USED ON THE POCKET AND HANDLES SETS OFF THE OTHER FABRIC PERFECTLY.
