For Christmas I made lots of shopping bags from beautiful furnishing

One piece of cloth was far too good to use for a bag or cushion cover so
this is what it is now.

It was Spouse's birthday yesterday and he's delighted with the result - he
had no idea it was being made :-)

Great work, Mary!! Fits him wonderfully well. And you're right, that
fabric was way too good for shopping bags. :)
