X-stitch lunch bag. School is starting and that means lots of new things: a new teacher, new clothes, and new school supplies. We thought we'd add to all the excitement by making a new re-usable, totally washable lunch bag! Materials To make one 10-inch tall by 5-inch wide by 3-inch deep lunch bag: Making the Panels Cut two 13-inch by 9 1/2-inch panels of the fabric. Using the water soluble marker, mark a 2-inch tall by 3 1/2-inch wide rectangle in the middle of one of the panels- 5-inches from the top and 3-inches from either side of the panel. Iron on the embroidery pattern pieces you want to use inside this marked rectangle. Embroider over the marked pattern with a small back stitch. Spray the rectangle marking with water to make it disappear and iron the panels. Hem each of the panels by folding the tops over 1/4-inch two times towards the fabric's wrong side.

Sewing the Bag Pin the panels right sides together around their three raw sides and sew them with a 1/2-inch seam allowance. Finishing. How to Make A Ring Sling Without Sewing.

This one was made from an old thrifted, quilted ottoman cover Gather materials: Quilted fabric for outer*, cotton broadcloth or similar for lining, Velcro. *Batting combined with broadcloth can also be used. For this one, I used a thrifted bedspread and bed sheet. Step 1 – Make pattern pieces. All measurements include 3/8″ seam allowance.

Step 2 – Add markings 2 1/4″ apart at center of each piece as shown in picture. These markings will help you place the connector piece. Step 3 – Using a single layer of lining and a single layer of quilted fabric, cut each piece out together. Curve the corners of velcro pieces so there are no sharp points. Step 4 – With right sides together, sew connector pieces together along long edges. (3/8″ seam allowance) Step 7 – Turn all pieces right side out and press. Step 8 – Top stitch connector piece 1/4″ from edge along sewn edges. You’re done!
