Before I started my sewing career I studied and worked in the Environmental Science sector. I hugged trees, cleaned up waterways and helped restore critical habitat. Any time I can use my sewing powers for the health of the environment I am all in!
While developing our Sewing and Embroidery for the Food Fanatic class, I was really excited to include these reusable bowl covers! There are too many single use plastics being used in the world and it makes my heart happy to be able to make these fabric bowl covers which can be used over and over again.
I love having cotton fabric bowl covers on hand especially in the summer. We spend a lot of time outside and live in the country. As you can bet, we have a generous amount of flies and wasps. I use these covers to keep our food safe and bug free.
If you need your bowl cover to be air tight as well you can use Food Safe PUL. This fabric comes in a variety of colours and designs! You can also make your cover with a layer of your favourite cotton on top of the PUL layer.
Nothing beats opening up your fridge and seeing your favourite fabrics covering all your bowls! Plastic wrap could never be that pretty.
If you would like to learn more about how to make your very own bowl covers AND other projects perfect for a Foodie at heart, check out our upcoming virtual Sewing and Embroidery for the Food Fanatic class!
