> Each bag is thoughtfully curated and sewn by my neighbor Carol. She names each one based off of their different characteristics. > No two are alike. > About 23" wide and 15" tall with an interior and exterior pocket. > > > Welcome to your new all-purpose tote bag! > > > I started making these bags when I found some denim scraps in my mom's fabric stash. She was deep into Alzheimer's, so it felt right to extrapolate on her project idea. I patched and pieced and made myself a tote, which received many glowing compliments. When I found myself accumulating more denim scraps and stained and irreparably damaged jeans, I decided to make more totes. It is a labor of love. Disassembling jeans, arranging pieces, sourcing and selecting rescued fabrics for the interiors and embellishments — it's all a giant upcycle art project. > > > Any proceeds from this project go toward my daughter's college tuition. So it goes - an idea from my mother, a project for me, an education for my girl. Turning grief into promise. > > > I encourage you to use your bag for any and everything. Big enough to carry laundry, strong enough to carry books, cute enough to carry anywhere. > > > Care: Machine washable, unless otherwise stated. Cold, gentle cycle. If any fraying or damage occurs to your bag over time, I encourage you to mend it! Mending will add character and is in line with the upcycled ethos of my work. Mending is resistance. > > > Thanks for reading! > xo > Carol
