Working on a budget means finding ways to recycle old items in my house is a must. One piece that seems to follow me from house to house has been my old pillowcases, which inspired this crafting how-to. Here's an easy way to reuse those old pieces of cloth into a neat, pretty tote!
What you'll need:
*An old pillowcase (I used a standard size)
*Needle and thread, or sewing machine
*A pretty stamp (I used VersaCraft’s fabric stamping pad), or some sort of embellishment of choice
*Pins and a pair of scissors
Step 1Creating the bottom of your bag

Begin by laying your pillowcase flat. Find the bottom corners of your pillowcase, and fold it into the bottom edge of your case, creating a triangle shape. Do this on both sides, and pin flat as shown. Sew along the pinned portion.
