    I will be doing this with some of my "free advertising" bags. Great idea.

    The bag looks so much better now. Your block is really nice.

    Great idea. In my city the stores are not allowed to give out plastic bags anymore so this is a really good idea. Will have to do this to all of my bags now. Thanks for the idea.

    What a great idea! I have a stash of these bags and didn't want to throw them away - now I can upcycle the bags and get rid of UFO's at the same time. Thanks so much for posting!

    Wonderful. I am always happy to see the use of cloth bags for shopping and when dressed like this, even better!
    peace

    Ditto! I probably wouldn't have thought to do this on my own. Great use of orphan blocks!
