    When making these could you use the bleached muslin as long as it is 100% cotton for the inside of the bag?

    make sure everything it is made with is 100 % cotton. Put the directions in also. We have had them catch fire in the microwave. I think they put them in there as long as putting potatoes in oven.
    Hope all works out in making these bag. If used correctly they are great.

    Blessings,

    Ok I got my first bag made. It was pretty easy to make. This time something I have finally made something for myself first. Can't wait to try it out later this week.

    For anyone who has made and sold these, how much do you or would you sell them for? I plan on making one that is alitte bigger for the corn on the cob. One of our lqs made one for the corn also. It of course a little bigger.
