We have a problem, a *serious* problem, in our house. I started making cloth napkins out of spare cotton fabric a little over a year ago to cut down on our paper towel usage, but once they have been used they seem to run amuck—rarely actually making it to the laundry hamper (and even then there they do not have their own slot). I find them squatting in the most unusual places--under the couch, under the bookcase in the kitchen, in a corner of the dining room, even under books in the office, everywhere…
When I first started making the napkins I knew I would eventually need to make a small little laundry bag for them in the kitchen, and now it is finally completed.
Fabric Used:
1.Random red linen-like cotton fabric that once were curtains that belonged to a friend
2.Netting from the bottom of our laundry hamper’s stand (never could figure out if I was supposed to use it in some way or not—it certainly wasn’t useful there)
Total Cost: $0.05 for electricity to power the sewing machine and the amount of thread I used (I buy thread in bulk).
