Tutorial: Repurposed t-shirt bag

January 16, 2014 by Anne Weaver

tshirtovernightbagSusan from Living With Punks shares a tutorial at Momtastic showing how you can repurpose an old t-shirt into a bag.  The one she made is will be an overnight bag for her daughter.  It’s super fast and super easy, requiring just one seam and a few cuts.  Go to Momtastic for her DIY.

    How do you open these instructions to see the how to do’s? Whats with the install deal to open it? theres some kind of virus on that. Is there another way to open it instead installing it to just open the instructions??

    Thanks;

    Robin

15 Dog Poop Bag Carriers You Can Sew For Your Dog

If you’re a dog owner, then you know the inevitable truth — what goes in, must come out. And in my house, that truth has a name: Aloo, our lovable, curly-coated Labradoodle who has made it his mission to poop like a champion. Seriously, this dog is a pooping machine.

In our area, not picking up after your dog isn’t just frowned upon — it’s illegal. So, being a responsible (and poop-weary) pet parent, I quickly realized we needed a poop bag holder that was not only practical but also cute and handmade. That’s when I went down the rabbit hole (pun intended?) of DIY dog poop bag holders — and now I’m sharing my favorite 15 free sewing patterns and tutorials with you!

Whether you’re after something sleek and minimalist or a treat-pocket combo pouch for walkies, this list has something for every type of sewist and pup. Bonus: most of these projects are total scrap busters too!

So, whether your furry friend is a casual stroller or a serial pooper like my dear Aloo, having a poop bag holder that’s handy, stylish, and easy to refill is a total game changer. You can clip them to a leash, toss one in your car, or make a few to keep near every exit — trust me, you’ll thank yourself later.

And hey, why settle for boring store-bought holders when you can sew your own in under an hour? Let me know which one you’re going to try — and give your four-legged pal a belly rub from me and Aloo!
