The Market Bag Sale is finally here!

Market Bag Display at a 2004 Charity Event

The Market Bag Line was developed over six years ago. I was searching for a way to make a sturdy bag out of my growing inventory of cotton prints that I used mostly for the Hot/Cold Packs and table linens. I wanted to make a bag that was as pretty as the Chenille Totes, just as sturdy but was also reasonably priced. Canvas shopping bags were starting to pop up in alternative stores and I thought that I might be able to make a bag that was sturdier and prettier than the light plastic and canvas Eco-friendly bags for sale. It was then that I got the idea to bond a cotton print to heavy canvas.

My first prototype bag was given away as a gift. However, the four bags I made right after that I still use for grocery shopping to this day. The Betsy Ross Linens Market Bag is made to last. It's sturdy and Eco-friendly. It has a magnetic snap closure and 3/4" short handles. The bottom seams are double sewn. And, there's a wide variety of prints to choose from on my Cotton Page and Limited Edition Prints on my Cotton 2 Page. In total, there are over 180 different cotton prints to choose from! You won't find that kind of selection anywhere else.

In 2006, the Market Tote was developed. Later that year, I designed the Market Purse and Mini Market Purse exclusively for a little gift shop in Buffalo, WY, that has a strong Basque community.
