It seems like everyone is selling those reusable totes anymore. Way back when, I bought one from Joann’s. Ever wonder how much can fit in it and how much weight it can hold? Apparently you can store a small toddler comfortably inside for an afternoon without breaking the straps or having the bottom fall out.

I just want to thank you for your blog as a whole and especially the linking Thursdays. I find all sorts of goodies I’d miss otherwise – like that darling puff pouch. And I’ll be watching for reports on the starch. Certainly sounds intriguing.
Thanks for the link about the pillowcases…I was just trying to figure out a way to slim down my fabric stash. Too many cute fabrics that I will never use otherwise!
There aren’t any shops around here participating, but the shop my Mom teaches at in N.C. is, how perfect!
I use that starch and I like it and they smell really good too. I purchased it at my sewing store when taking a class bc they let us use some to make a stiff press. Give it a try.
