Knit Pillowcase
Paper Versus Plastic? Or Cotton Versus Canvas?
It's now a trend: the reusable grocery bag. I am beginning to see grocery stores selling canvas bags for $1 a piece. I fathom that those prices will increase when (or if the "pay a quarter per plastic bag" law passes).
WholeFoods has already taken a step towards this "banning plastic at the checkout" concept. By Earth Day, April 22, 2008 their 270 U.S., Canadian, and British based stores will be officially asking their customers "What type of reusable bag do you have today?" instead of "Paper or plastic?"
But before many of us jump on the bandwagon, why not look at a few statistics on plastic first? According to the American Chemistry Council:
1. 2,000 plasic bags weigh 30 pounds vs 2,000 paper bags weigh 280 pounds. Therefore, plastic bags take up less landfill.
2. Delivery of paper bags vs plastic bags: seven trucks vs only truck to deliver the same amount of plastic bags. This means less energy and less emissions into the environment.
3. The manufacture of paper bags uses 70% more air emissions than plastic bags.
4. Plastic bags generate 80% less waste than paper bags.
5. 815 Million pounds of plastic and film was recycled in 2006 - an increase of 24% from 2005.
So what's all this hype on banning plastic bags in grocery stores about? Even retailers such as Walmart offer plastic bag collection bins at the front of the store. The problem is, we as a society in general do not recycle enough. Don't you see all those poor beat up plastic bags hanging from the tree branches? No, they are budding flowers. In the US alone, approximately 100 Billion bags are used per year, of which most ends up sitting in our landfills for 1,000 years.
And I haven't even said my prayers for all those innocent marine animals that choked and died from eating pieces of plastic. You would think that they would know the difference between jellyfish and plastic but apparently, they don't.
So what's the catch-all solution? BYOB: Bring Your Own Bag (Sorry party animals. In this case, the acronym does not mean bring your own beer).
If you want to jump on the BYOB bandwagon, and don't want to spend a lot of money on buying one or want to bring a trendy looking one, here are some places where you can find great patterns on creating your own reusable shopping bags. But you may need to know how to sew, knit or crochet.

What is your most cherished family heirloom?
Mine is a blanket knitted by my great-grandmother. It's a basketweave knit, and the yarn she used was a cotton about the thickness of kite string. I'm guessing it's at least 150 years old or more.
Next would be some pillowcases that my sister made for me with Battenburg lace ends.
I forgot to add that I also have a queen-size quilt that my mother had made from a quilt top my grandmother had made.
Bassetfreak -- Heirlooms are in the eye of the beholder. They're dear to you and that's what matters.
I have a locket that my mother wore for her senior picture. We had never seen it and found it after she passed away in 2001. We also found her senior picture where she is wearing the locket. We didn't get a lot of her momentos because my brother stole and sold most of her things after she passed away.
I also have a beautiful rose bush that we dug up before we sold her house. It's the old fashioned type tea rose. It always covered her front fence and she had started it from a piece given to her by her great grandmother. The starting that I planted gets hundreds of flowers every summer and everytime it blooms, I remember how much my mom loved it.
I guess these aren't really heirlooms, but they mean the world to me because that's all I have left besides pictures to remember my precious Mom.
I feel pretty and gay and I knit my own pillowcase
