  Step 1

  Gather your materials:

  Red Felt
  Yellow Felt
  Yellow/Orange Yarn

  Set the yarn aside

• 

  Step 2

  Start by cutting a rectangle out of your red felt. > I forgot the measurements since I did this a year ago < ..
  It should almost look like a square, but still rectangular.
  Make sure you write down whatever measurements you made.
  Using the measurements, do the same on the Yellow Felt.
  Using the base measurement, cut out a small rectangle (base measurementx4")
  Cut out 2 rectangles(that increase in width going down) from the Red and Yellow felt.

• 

  Step 3

  Sew all the pieces together.

• 

  Step 4

  Cut the logos out.

  (My apologies for the bright flash. The Yellow "M" is at the right.)

• 

  Step 5

  Paste (using a glue gun) the McDonald's logo on the red side.

• 

  Step 6

  Paste (using a glue gun) the Carls Jr. logo on the yellow side.

• 

  Step 7

  Now for the straps! Cut out two pieces like the one to this one

  <- I did one yellow piece and one red piece.

• 

  Step 8

  Ok, so grab the ends of the red piece and (in your head) divide the width into 3 sections. About and inch from the edge of the piece, cut along the first imaginary section, then the third, leaving the middle section alone.
  Bend the piece the way I am.

• 

  Step 9

  Bend the rest of the piece and stitch the edges together using the yellow/orange yarn. It should look like this.

• 

  Step 10

  Pin the edges of the red piece down to yellow side of the bag.

• 

  Step 11

  When you're ready, remove the pins and sew a button on the ends.

• 

  Step 12

  Do the same on the other side, using a yellow piece for the strap.

  ..and you just made an earth friendly sandwich bag to replace all those paper bags you've used!
