I'm just a bag-makin' fool! I think this is the last of the batch for
the time being.

Oh my gosh - I absolutely love your tote bag Joan. Can I be your secret
Santa recipient this year? How long did it take you to make it?

No, it's a store sample, like most of the others. How long? Well,
the technic requires sewing all of the strips together end to end.
That's 37 strips. (3 are reserved for binding the top and the
handles.) Then you press the strips in half and half again. So
before you even begin wrapping the clothesline, there's lots of
pressing. The strips are sewn around the clothesline. (At this
point, there was a trip to the hardware store for more clothesline.
Clothesline comes in 100 ft rolls and you need 150 ft. Naturally.)
Then you start zigzagging the strips into the bag shape. 2 days off
and on?
