If you go to member blogs to Mickey Dupre she shows in her blog how to make a green bag -- it was just recent -- maybe 1 to 2 weeks ago. Very easy. She has pictures and instructions.
I think sometimes the cart gets a little ahead of the horse - the newsletter also mentioned an article that hasn't yet appeared in that section. I think if we're patient, they will show up.
I got the newsletter tonight and it showed a project for a "green" shopping bag to make. When I went to the projects page it wasn't there. Did I misunderstand where the pattern would be? Thanks for your help, I have been looking for a pattern for shopping bags!
