Oilcloth Crafts: Lunch Bags

a98535_0701_blueplaid.jpg

The same oilcloth that covers your kitchen table can transport your children's lunches -- or your own -- in leak-free style.

These reusable bags will cut back on waste since they can simply be washed with a damp sponge (oilcloth is not washing-machine safe). Use a single print for the whole bag, or cut out complementary patterns or solid colors for side panels. You can attach small Velcro tabs to hold the bags closed, or clip the tops with colorful wooden clothespins.
