Do boys wash?

Do boys wash? I'm sure they do!!!

So my baby boy (yes he's seven but still my baby boy) is going on an overnight trip with school.  We got a kit list this week and on that list was 'wash bag'. Not wanting to send him with a pink wash bag, I thought I 'd have a go at making one.

I chose some crocodile fabric for the bag. Then after a sewing test on some thin clear plastic fabric, I decided to line the bag with the plastic.

Using a plastic lid for my template, I cutout two fabric bases and one plastic base.

I cut out two rectangles for the sides, so that the pattern was the correct way up inside and outside.

I also cut out one rectangular piece of plastic fabric for the inside and edged it in fabric.

With the plastic sandwiched in position, I sewed the bag together.

Then just added a draw string around the top.

Great for the school trip and for camping in the summer.

Will he wash his face and brush his teeth?  Well we'll see. . . . . .
