Thanks Torri! Great idea. Great instructions
Thanks Anne 😊
Wish I could give more than one like. Thanks Torri for sharing. Christine is the best for sharing instructions.
Thanks so much😀
Great gift for the environmentally conscious folks you know. I carry my own cutlery, fabric napkin and reusable straw with me in a similar pouch so I don't have to use disposable utensils while away. This pouch is a better design than mine. Thanks Torri for the design & Christine for the how to video!
Great idea Starla. We should all do this more often 😊
Oh I love these. I'm going to make one for my fan that I want to keep in my bag. 😀🧡
That's a great idea Leah😀
Love hearing the birds in the background.
Me too Janet 😊
They would also be handy if you have a toddler that can't use larger cutlery when you go out to restaurants, they can take their own " pint size " utensils.
What a wonderful idea Joan 😊
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs thank you
I love this idea. You could also make it as long but a bit deeper and sew a cloth napkin to go with it. Put in your preferred cutlery and either a metal, reusable plastic or silicone straw. Then no matter where you go you have all you need for a sustainable option and you know your cutlery is clean to your own standards.
That sounds like a great idea MK 😀
Great for the car or work lunch box. A hemmed fat quarter makes a great napkin to pop inside as well 😊
That'd be a great addition Sue 😊
Great idea! Read other comments, all good. I think I will try to put one together for my sister for Christmas, better hurry, only three days away. She crochets and takes it with her so she can work on it when she has a chance. Would be great for the crochet hooks.
Your tutorials are wonderful. You give all the tricks and tips needed to put together a great project. Good day from the USA!!
Thanks Karen. You've got time to make plenty in three days 😊
Great idea. I made one for my daughter and put in some chopsticks and a knife a fork, they fitted beautifully. Great for the hamper gift I put together for her with a combination of jars of homemade goodies. 🥰
That's a lovely gift idea Margaret 😀
What a surprise to see you this morning. I thought you were having a break.
Great idea Tori had and thanks for sharing it with us.
My break starts now Janet. Though I do have one more video planned for this year with the bag winners 😊
Very cute! These are great to put in a lunch box for kids to take to school or someone who takes their lunch to work or a picnic. Thank you for the tutorial.
You're very welcome 😊
What a neat idea. After Christmas I’m going to have to make some of these for my son and his troop. OR better yet, maybe I’ll work with the boys and let them make their own .
That's a great idea Lucy. They'll love making it themselves 😊
These are great! Love the idea of a horizontal opening better than the vertical ones, which can be a bit fiddly. Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome Sabine 😊
I like this idea. I have done some using a flat pouch with centre zip.
Love the tin of fly spray on your bench, tooo funnnnnny 😂
Haha, How did I know you'd pick up on that Tracey. 🤪
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs hahahahaha
My brother takes his own cutlery to a restaurant so he might use one of these! 😂 Good idea for sanitary purposes these days!
That sounds like a great idea 😊
Very cool idea and useful for just about anything.
It sure is Judi 😀
Lovely project Christine. I had a few suggestions for using these then read some comments and they are all down below haha. As you said, change the size and could be ideal for sunglasses 🕶👓🥢🍴
Thanks lesley. Yes, viewers have so many great ideas for other uses 😊
Thanks so much, I made a similar pouch with waterproof suade for my straws, your pattern is more sophisticated.
Thanks Jess ☺️
Once again a good idea. They could also be useful for crochet hooks, I’m always carrying a project with me and the small steel crochet hooks are kind of hard to keep up with.
They'd be perfect for that Pat 😊
Happy New Year, Christine! Thank you for another wonderful tutorial.
Thanks Karen. Happy New Year ☺️
Awesome idea and lovely material you have used
Thanks Rosalie 😊
Oh, and also for stainless steel straws & their cleaning brushes
Yes, perfect lara 😊
Merry Christmas from Canberra, love your channel. Great idea!
Thanks Debbie Merry Christmas 😊
Thank you!
You're welcome Dannie😀
Just subscribed! Love seeing, thank you for some good 💡 ideas!!
Thanks Caroline. Welcome! 😃
They would also work for pencils, pens, crochet hooks, knitting needles, etc. I have used a wood burning tool to remove the snaps. You just melt the center pin on the snap and they easily come apart. Other people have cut or crushed the snaps. I find the wood burning tool or a soldering iron works best for me. Great little project.
OOH, I'm going to search Chris's shed for a wood burning tool. Thanks Richard 😊
I have a desk top snap machine( actually 2 set up one for each side ) I believe you can get a die for removing them to. Love the solder iron idea. As a pain when get faulty one or do wrong
Thank you for the great tip. I have completed a project and put in a plastic snap that doesn't snap once put in the item. Very frustrating. I need to get a wood burning tool. Unfortunately I had one and got rid of it.
I had to use a hammer to remove mine. Do you have another hot tool that might work?😀
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs If you heat up a nail or a paper clip. You would have to be careful. They would get very hot. You just want to melt the pin, in the center of the snap. In the US, wood burning tools are cheap and can be found at any craft store. I checked Amazon and Walmart. Looks like soldering irons are cheaper than wood burning tools. They both heat up very fast and only take a few seconds to melt the plastic. I have seen videos, where people use small wire cutters to snip around the snap until they break apart.
Could adjust size for tooth paste and brush maybe waterproof lining . Like others I carry a set cuterlry and chopsticks and straws and a micro fibre cloth to wipe down before putting back n . You could pop in a press sealbag to put dirty cutlery back in. Mine is a zippered pouch as was bought as a pre made set but I really like this one to make for gifts
That's a great idea Sandy😀
Thank you
You're welcome Cynthia 😊
Good project for beginners! (FYI, the link to your Amazon storefront for those of us in the US goes to a specific product--a pattern notcher--and not to a storefront.)
Thanks Rosa. I'll try to sort that over the New Year 😃
Not just camping. Plastic single-use cutlery has been banned in many Australian states and the bamboo stuff can be horrible to use.
I always carry lightweight cutlery with some of my favourite teabags.
We have a stack of cutlery floating around in the car Sharon. I guess I better put these pouches to use for us as well 😊
These r fantastic! I've been sticking my fork in a plastic bag..but luv this and will make! Maybe have a plastic liner? Cuz after u use it, cutlery may be dirty? Just a thought..but yeah, fantastic! I haverecre
Karin, you could make yourself a few. Then you can wash them as needed 😃
Hi Christine... what a great ideaa. You could make them in chrissy materiall How is Chriss arm. Merry Christmas and a Bright and prosperous New Year...
Chris is doing very well Tracey. He's even behaving himself. Merry Christmas 😊
Love this! Note -At 7:17 you may have edited out the step where the straight edge that has no clipped corners is topstitched which closes the opening and finishes the edge. And a questions: your link for amazon storefront is taking me to a specific product that is not available but I can't find your storefront - am I missing something or is it not the right link? Thanks Tori and Christine for the design and tutorial! I love that you showed with both a single piece and 2 pieces. And yes that is such a cute coaster:)
Thanks Vikki. You'll find the top stitching section at 6:12 where I did the blue pouch. I should have moved the order around the other way 😊
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs Yep I missed it:)
Nice idea
Thanks Eve 😊
🪡🪡🪡🪡🪡🙂🙂💓💓💓
Thanks Joy 😊
For some reason I am having a hard time following your instructions. I don't ever have this problem with your other follow amongst. I know it's just me. Sorry. I'll watch again later.
Let me know what I can help you with Susan 😊
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs I'm sick with some bad health issues, so maybe I'll watch it again in a couple of days. Normally I can watch the first part of your videos and just automatically can finish them in my head. So, it's because I can't concentrate on it. I'll let you know. Thank you for being kind.
@Susan Denney no worries. Happy to help if needed. Hope you're well again soon 😀
Great idea, thank you for sharing , these will suit people not liking to use plastic cutlery when out and about
