These fun, functional sandwich wraps give you a reusable alternative to plastic baggies, plus they are a snap to make. After each use, they can be wiped clean with a damp cloth or tossed in with the rest of the laundry. Check outSewing Green for my Lunch Tote and Water Bottle Sling projects.

You can also keep up with me and Sewing Green on my blog here. Note: PUL refers to any fabric that has been laminated with polyurethane on one side to make it waterproof. One 20-inch x 21-inch "diaper cut" is enough to make one sandwich wrap. 1. Cut the pieces. 2. Hem the edges.
Did you make this, After you make this project, show off your work to other members! 3gurlz writes: I have never worked with PUL, but I do have some vinyl overlayed cotton similar to what I just found on Fabricdotcom. Can anyone tell me if this can be substituted for the PUL in this pattern,

Had to recycle it when I was at school. I'll make sure that soon my Sandwiches will be packed in a reusable wrap. BenAar0n writes: The PUL wazoodle sells says that it is food safe.

Thank heaven my brother adviced to try to take the home loans at reliable creditors. Thence, I acted so and was happy with my collateral loan. This is great. I haven't made them yet. I have to tell you my story.t work a single father asked if I could makr a reuseable bag that he could wash.Ofcourse I told him I would take on the chalange So now I just have to get started.
We need an edit button, lol. I was going to say the foil works best for me, tried using a ziploc bag but it was sooo slippery I got mad and ditched it. 1 writes: I made mine about 6 months ago and for the lining I use foil lined chip bags.
You know, like veggie fries or chips come in, Just cut the bottom seam off, then cut down the center back seam, open and wash it, hang to dry and cut it out right along with your pattern. My husband uses his everyday and works in a machine shop,so it gets some rough use. It has held up very well and I make his sandwich the night before and it stays fresh until lunch the next day!
It wipes out so easily, but honestly it rarely actually has anything more than crumbs left on it. I know the lining is safe because food is packaged in it to sell, I am accumulating a nice little stash so I can make a bunch of these for Christmas gifts!
