Little Essie takes a packed lunch off to school every day, so of course she demanded a cute homemade lunch bag.
I love these little lunch trays, but they are a wide size, so I had to make a custom shape. I’ll show you how to make a boxy bag like this in any size you need.
I made the lining from Kokka Large Trefle Matroyshka Dolls and Mushrooms Oilcloth in Red and the outside is matching quilting cotton. Which means I can wipe down the inside, but I can’t wash it. Maybe not the best plan? A nylon outer would have been perfect, but she has been using this for 4 months with no issues so it worked out okay.

MMMMmmmmm, here’s another quick and easy breakfast recipe, sort of a savory take on the famous scones.
This little monkey gobbled them up (though she did make me pick out the chives – “mommy i don’t like dat salad”). For the prudent dad I added jalapenos and he posed for us, ha.

I highly recommend having your babies during a season other than Winter. All this bundling, sigh… Mostly I have been hiding at home but on occasion I venture out to scare the public with my dark circles and lack of personal grooming. On such occasion, I cover Gordon’s baldy-bean with a soft little cap, so this weekend I made him a few of these little Top Knot Baby Hats.
They were super easy and quick! A perfect little gift for a new babe and a great use for an old t-shirt or sweater.
