bags

my mom has always sewn. when i was young, she would tell me stories about her and her sister spending hours in their room, listening to beatles 45's and sewing all summer long. they would squeeze pattern pieces onto scraps of fabric, just enough to make one more skirt or bag.

i always wanted to learn to sew but every time my mom started to teach me, i could never get past the basics. in the summer of 2008, i decided to give it another try. i found a thrifted, vintage tablecloth and made a tote bag out of it. i was thrilled! without even knowing it, greenbugbags was born.

this bag page will archive bags that have already found good homes. to view bags currently for sale visit my etsy shop!
