What a super idea - thanks for the link. I think I just might have to make a few of those.
My initial thought was great for pressies, but then again I could do with some bags for the supermarket (anyone else fed up with the bags for life splitting at inopportune moments  ) these would be the perfect replacements

Ooh they are fab. I need a new stash of tea towels as I discovered a new use for them recently - rat hammocks, my lot love them  . If only I didn't have a really bad aversion to the sewing machine *shudders*!

I made some of these last year & they're great. Haven't taken photos yet though so can't share I'm afraid.
