T-Shirt Shopping Bag

I know everyone is trying to go a little greener these days so I thought I would do a few going green swaps.

This one is for a T-Shirt Shopping bag or tote bag. Remember DONOT go out and buy a new t-shirt for this project. If you don't have one laying around the house buy a used one from a yard sale or thrift store. Make sure that these are all washed and need to be pretty much stain free. These can be concert shirts, logos, cute sayings, or just have a cute pic on them. Must not be a plain t-shirt though. Has to have some kind of design. It is better to use a Large or X-Large shirt for this project. I will leave some web sites for an explanation. Remember you donot have to follow these exactly.

Now for the nitty gritty. Usa Only, 4.5 or higher rating, at least 5 completed and rated swaps under your belt, no no sends in the last 6 months. I will ban anyone that does not meet these requirements or that I deem to be flaky.

I agree, this is a super cool idea for a swap! Someone should organize an international version..

Do these have to be lined? I'm not good at doing lining.
