Lunch Totes

I have a ton of fabric. Too much fabric. Because of this, I am always on the search for projects to eat up my fabric collection.

In steps the totally cute, little pattern makers of the world (by little, I mean the folks out there who are bravely making lovely patterns, not the big books of Vogue, Simplicity, Butterick, etc)  who are making patterns for people like me, with random collections of not really cute but usable fabrics at various lengths.

First project on the docket - a little set of lunch bags using up the random  pieces of oil cloth I bought like 6 years ago for what reason I dunno.

This is a lovely photo of the finished bag – I am using a pattern from The Long Thread, feel free to visit her wonderful site to download the free PDF.

Stay tuned for more pics of process!

It's on!
