I Made It: Reusable Sandwich Bags

I have been wanting to try these for a while...and now that I have, I can't stop making them!

Meet the reusable sandwich bag.


I originally found the tutorial here via here. I also have it posted here.

Aren't they so fun?!


I made a few tweaks to the original design so I'm working on a tutorial for you. So far I've made a few for my husband, a few for my dad, and I have lots of material cut and ready to go!


[Check out my party page for a list of the blogs I post to]

    I need to make one of these for my hubby who always packs a sandwich for work. Save on plastic baggies, and be "greener"!

    I hope they're easy enough for the sewing challenged like me, because I ♥ them!

    So neat. I want to make some too and can't wait till you post your tutorial. I don't like using sandwich bags or zip lock bags, but most of the time I have to because my sandwiches are too big for my lunchbox. Visiting from A-P Tuesday.

    Did you just use an outdoor table cloth for your fabric? (If so, what a great idea!)

    I've been wanting to make some of those but I'm concerned about the type of fabric everyone suggests to use because they aren't food safe. What did you use?? It looks like just cotton fabric.

    That is a fabulous idea! I feel so guilty when I wrap my children's sandwiches with disposable plastic wrap.
