Making Mayan fabric bags

Oh, so happy!  The woven fabrics here are lively, beautiful, and so very colorful!  I have been sewing bags to help carry all the fresh fruits and vegetables that I transport from the market.

Back when I pushed my fruits and veggies in a cart to the checkout counter of a grocery store, I never realized how heavy they are!  But I am not complaining, even when my shoulders start to burn, because I love the market-shopping experience!
Then I have to wash and disinfect all those delicious purchases.  See the blog post called "Disinfecting Food and Water."
