A couple of years ago we were invited to dinner at a family members house. It was a spur of the moment thing. One of menu items were baked potato's. Short on time it was decided to microwave them. The family member proceeds to take 2 large bags out of a drawer and puts the potato's in them! Asking why she explained that they were potato bags and that even though the potato was microwaved it would taste like they were oven baked. You simply wash and dry the potato and put them in the bag to cook in the microwave. We were skepitcal, but it turned out that she was right! So here are the directions to making your very own potato bag.
2 pieces of cotton fabric 11″ x 22″ (cotton with no metallic)
1 piece of cotton batting11″ x 22″
Place the fabric right sides together and then put onto the batting.
Stitch across each short end using a 1/4″ seam. Trim seam.
Position the fabric you want to be the inside of the bag on the outside as you sew.
Fold the top edge down about 2-3 inches. fold the bottom up and overlap about 1″. Sew this seam at 1/2″
Sew both sides. Trim to 1/4″. Serge or zig zag these two sides.
Turn the bag right side out.
