Thanks for featuring my eco-friendly bag….I had no idea you were featuring me! Just happened to see it when I visited your blog this morning. I ‘m glad everyone enjoys it and thanks for crediting http://flyawayhome-4am.blogspot.com/ in your post.
Just a heads up. I made a lot of cloth baggies last year for our lunches. They do not keep sandwiches fresh. The bread becomes stale before lunch time. They do work well for vegetables, pretzels, and fruit. I wash them by turning them inside out.
What did you use for the lining fabric? We have some lined with ripstop nylon that will keep a sandwich fresh for four hours or so.
Thanks! I was just digging around in my cupboards today trying to figure out what I was going to put some snacks in and this would have been perfect!
These are great! We sometimes bring a snack to church and these would be perfect. My husband also uses sandwich bags to bring his lunch to work and these would be just what I was looking for to save money.
Now I just need to make time to make about a dozen bags!
We love reusable snack bags! I also have a tutorial on my blog about how to make a variation of this bag and one for how to make a bag to store homemade bread. Thanks for this link, crystal!

Thank you so much for sharing!!! I have plenty of “extra” fabric that I could make some of these with. YEAH!! I’m all about reusable resources and these are great! They will be much easier to take along for our hiking trips than the small bowls I take for my daughter’s snack. Bowls can cramp up a back-pack real fast! LOL!
Love it. Thank you so much for sharing!!
Love this! Thank you! This looks like something I could make.
This is great! We go through sandwich size ziploc bags incredibly fast. Thank you for the link!
Super Cute! Thanks for sharing 🙂
