It's been an adjustment having to take lunch to work with me (so much planning!). But just because I'm trying to be economical doesn't mean I have to brownbag it. Indeed, why not gold/blue/white/black bag it? Tired of packing my lunch in old shopping bags (even Anthropologie), I decided I needed something more environmentally friendly and just the right size.
Behold, my new hand-quilted lunch bag! It took me several hours over the course of the last week and a half. I used fabric from my costume in the sixth grade play (some 15 years ago), a lovely cotton print I bought at Stone Mountain & Daughter, and some remnants from Wal-Mart. The stitching is pretty darn sloppy, but you can't really tell, and it will do the job. See slideshow below for the making-of.
