environmentally friendly saving all those plastic bags!
Materials:
Muslin Fabric
Embroidery Floss
Instructions:
- To make one cut out a 5” X 12” piece of muslin fabric.
- Fold the end of the fabric a 1/2”down on one of the 5” sides and hem leaving the ends open.
Repeat on the opposite end. - Fold the cloth in half so the hemmed ends meet (stitching side out)
- Sew around the edges first with a running stitch, than with the zigzag stitch.
- Slip a 16” length of embroidery floss through the shaft to work as a drawstring and tie a knot.
- Leave the stitching on the outside so food doesn’t get caught in the thread.
- Fill the bag with yummy snacks such as nuts, dried fruit, and pretzels.
