katie didn't have a lunch box and i sent her to school today with her lunch in a paper bag. gah. certainly i can whip up something for her to take her lunch in, i thought. so i found this wonderful tutorial and voila! her lunch bag was born. it is done in one of my all-time fave fabrics, alexander henry's apples and pears. i didn't have any oilcloth (which is what cindy used) and since i am trying to be thrifty and use up some of my stash i improvised and laminated my fabric and then sewed. i added some velcro at the top to keep it closed and a cute scalloped hem. i think it turned out pretty cute, no?! and katie is excited to take her lunch to school now :)
very interesting! I add this good idea on my blog :D
