Believe it or not this cute bag:
Used to be this placemat!
I took it and folded it in half lengthwise (like a hot dog bun, not a hamburger ;) then stitched up the side and bottom. It was such an easy bag to make. The hardest part was the flower, and it is SOOOO easy to make. It is more like oragami than sewing.
I only used one placemat and 4 recycled buttons. This fits The King James version of the bible and the triple combination (BOM, D&C Pearl of Great Price) But I was thinking it would be a really cute reuseable lunch bag for a little girl. (OR a big one. This is soo cute!)
Here's another picture for you!
Thanks for looking! :) I was thinking of adding my DD initials cut with the cricut. I think that would look ADORABLE. But since I made this for a Church activity (it is a sample of what we will be making) I thought I shouldn't make it personalized... :) Let me know what you think! I LOVE comments!
I love it! great idea, joydee1963 at yahoo dot com!!
ReplyDeleteVery Cute!! I like the lunch bag idea...does it hold it's shape when empty?
ReplyDelete@joydee1963 thanks! @ Keli this one doesn't because the place mat was very thin, I think if you used a quilted place mat, or just a more sturdy one it would.
ReplyDeleteWow! what a work of art and transformation - I saw this on Inspire me Fridays x
