OK, so here’s a draft – please suggest any changes here and then we can put in the resources section for general consumption and send it to people hoping they will send it in.
Can you sew? Do you have a sewing machine? Do you have any spare material? Do you like making people smile? If so, you sound like a morsbagger!
I have been a morsbagger in this village for X years and have been making reusable bags and giving them away for free to people in the hope they will use the recycled and lovingly hand made morsbags rather than a plastic bag. It’d be wonderful if even more people got involved in the local area.
Please go to http://www.morsbags.com to download the free pattern and/or watch the ‘how to’ and make morsbags from old curtains, duvet covers, tablecloths etc. or give me a ring on: xxxxxx if you’d like me to give you a hand making your first morsbag, or give you a few of the labels we sew on to help spread the word.
Groups or ‘pods’ of morsbaggers are stitching worldwide and have made and given away over 140,000 morsbags to date – potentially replacing over 73 million plastic bags – but I’d like to concentrate on getting everyone in THIS village supplied with a free, strong, unique, reusable, washable morsbag – and this is where I hope you’ll join in. Many hands make light work and as a morsbag only takes 20 minutes to make you’d be joining in making a lovely gift as a random act of kindness.
Please help spread the word about this non profit, community initiative in some way, or dust off your sewing machine, or phone me, or donate material, or ‘like’ it on Facebook, or tell a local teacher/guide leader about it… the list is endless, and so are the number of plastic bags masquerading as jelly fish in our oceans right now, ready for a whale to ingest.
Thanks, and Happy Bagging!
