    Wouldn't it be wonderful to have all those colors available!?
    But unless a lot of us would go together and buy it, the smallest amount you can get is 8 feet. I found another site that sold it by the 1/2 yard, but they would only cut in 1/2 yard pieces due to what they called "shipping issues". Bummer!

    My DH redid all the house screens with that mesh. Now I know what to do with the leftovers. Great bag.

    I really like the idea of making them into a tote bag. You did a really nice job on it.
    I buy mine from mill end. I don't know if the on- line mill end store has it. But, the one here in reno has tons of colors. aqua, bright yellow, blue, red....

    Here's the ones I made last year for halloween.

    Are these made from a pattern? Is the pet mesh all there is in the bottom? (Besides the corners)

    Yes, at least for the one i made that was similar to the one originally posted on this thread a "The Mesh of It Tote." Great for the beach as the sand would fall though the mesh, not not wind up in a pile at the bottom after a day at the beach.
