I used this adorable “Choose Kindness” print from Sweet Water Fabrics. It’s printed on a light canvas material. I really like using canvas, or even waxed canvas for this project. Anything that is a bit thicker and more durable is perfect!

For the straps I used a 1-1/4″ cotton webbing. It’s nice and flexible, strong, and easy to work with.

They also fold up nicely making them very compact for carrying. I like to fold up a bunch, then put them all into one bag and take them with me to the super market.

Of course they’re re-usable, but they’re also washable! Just toss them in the wash on warm, and either lay flat or tumble dry and you’re good to go!
