Things to make with oilcloth
I recently came into a piece of oilcloth (someone was Freecycling a load of fabric!) that is probably a good size for a lunchbag. I did some online research for oilcloth project ideas. Here is a compilation!
- oilcloth zipper pouch
- cheery rain hat
- oilcloth trays (this website is dedicated to oilcloth ideas, actually!)
- skiptomylou’s lunchbag
- Fashion Diva’s Lunch Bag and Clutch Purse
- projects tagged with oilcloth at craftster
- backpack!
- google books excerpts from a book called It’s fun to make things from scrap materials
I will probably make skiptomylous’ lunchbag, and add some sort of elastic and button closure. I’ve user her cray roll tute before with great success.

But it is an absolutely lovely idea. Click on the far right thumbnail to see the finished product - the main photo on this page actually just shows a kid in front of a regular bookshelf - which is what you are making an alternative for!
