For years, while my children were going through school, I made lunch bags out of the "oil cloth" table cloths. You know the ones; you use them on picnic tables, your kitchen table, etc. These would just get washed with the supper dishes, allowed to air dry, then refilled the next morning---ready for another school day. These table cloths are so inexpensive, and they can usually be found at the dollar stores. I love how all these "vintage" standards are coming back with fresh twists on them. Since we're all in another Great Depression, I'm hopeful that some of us "vintage" savers and nickel-squeezers will be able to help this generation! I’m a “vintage” sewer!
