The Generation X'er broke the zip on her cooler bag - "I'm throwing this away mum, DON'T get it out of the bin"
"But it's still GOOD..." says the Baby Boomer mother
and so it was, once the zipper was removed, and the flap lid cut off and the outside patchworked.
and I've got a little carry bag for my little projects.

Lovely bag!
Erica, congratulations for your wonderful work. Take a look on it in my blog www.tricotandoascores.blogspot.com
Kiss,
Rafaela
Corryna, thank you
Rafaela, that was so nice of you to feature me on your blog, thank you, I loved it!
It's delightful! Great bag to bring to the grocery and it's beautiful too.
Yes, definately a Baby Boomer thing to do. My DD#2 was helping to "sort out" the spare room, I had to practically tie her hands behind her back to stop her throwing out all my treasures!! Gen Y is such a throwaway one, isn't it? Love your ideas on this one a lot.
Hooroo,
Christine
