Hello Earth Day!!! I was trying to think of an earth friendly sewing tutorial to share over at Momtastic and came up with the idea to turn re-usable shopping bags into little zipper pouches.

My son loves to run around the house yelling “ROAR”. He also loves bath time. So I thought it would be fun to bring the two together and create monster inspired face cloths.
