Resuable Bags & Big Purse

Awhile ago I purchased this really big purse. I normally carry a smallish purse, because quite frankly, I don't carry much in my purse. But something about this, hippy style, purse just struck my fancy, and I bought it.

Turns out I like a big purse! But not because I carry lots of stuff inside it. Nope, I like it because when I run to the store for a few items, I just put the items inside my purse rather than using a plastic bag. There is no need to store a reusable bag inside my purse; my purse is my bag! And being that it is so large, and flexible, it holds quite a bit of extra stuff.

Today I bought about 7-8 yards of fabric for a pioneer dress outfit for Gherkie. Fabric, buttons, thread; it all fit inside along with all the other odds and ends already stuffed inside my purse.

Yea! I love this new discovery.
