Microwave Popcorn Bag
You’ll need:
-
100% cotton fabric (2 pieces 25x40cm) (for outer and inner layer - I used 2 different fabrics but 1 fat quarter will do both pieces)
-
Cotton thread (no synthetics — it’s going in the microwave)
-
Sewing machine (or hand-sewing skills and patience but it's easy I promise!)
How to make:
-
Cut two pieces of fabric to about 25x40cm.
-
Layer and sew the fabric pieces right sides together (leaving an opening to turn right-side out and do so).
-
Stitch around all edges to close. Fold the short edges in toward the centre (like a burrito) and stitch down each side to form a pocket. (You can also fold the top over so it overlaps slightly and forms an opening like a tissue box like what I did, or leave it open with a flap)
-
To use: Add ¼ cup popcorn kernels, fold the end over, microwave for 2–3 minutes (keep an ear out for when popping slows).
- Add flavouring - honestly get inventive, these are the best flavours!
Cozy tip: Personalise with fun fabric prints — I’ve got a full family affair on the go, personal ones for each family member :P
