The Library Bag

My sister-in-law and I have been toying with the idea of going in to business together.  Although, as we've talked over the past few weeks I don't know that we can mesh our ideas -- so instead, for now we're going to be each other's motivational cheerleader!  So our task for February was to come up with 3 possibly marketable ideas.  This is my first: a library bag.  I had some leftover canvas from another project and wanted something roomy, sturdy, and with pockets.  It's designed after a reusable bag you can find in any grocery store but I added two pockets on the back, one on the front, and one of the side.  That way I can carry the girls' books in the middle without impediment but I have space to put the little things that we seem to need in the library.


I don't know if it's marketable but it certainly makes my life easier!

Do you know what I want? I want a rolling library cart of some type, made of a strong canvas that I can put the books in, with a frame that is detachable and compact so I can put it in the trunk. Two pieces: one the frame, one the canvas to hold the books. I'm to the point that I can barely carry our library bag to and from the car.

I am still so impressed with your handiwork! That bag makes me want to go to the Library.
