Fused Plastic Bags

I have tried fusing plastic bags a couple times. I learned of it from etsy labs and I've since seen it in a few other places. It's so easy. I experimented a little before trying it for real... just to be certain I wasn't going to set the house on fire.

my first attempt


and my second


My sewing skills are very rusty, but they came together okay. I can't believe how strong they are.

To polish my sewing, I want to get a couple books:

Bend-the-Rules Sewing by Amy Karol
Lotta Jansdotter's Simple Sewing
and Amy Butler's In Stitches

Deanna makes the greatest use out of old plastic bags, a terrific and USEFUL way to get rid of the bags and never acquire new ones, again! Anyone interested in them should request her pattern. They're so simple, just like all the best ideas are. Thanks, Deanna!
