Here are a couple of cloth bowls I made and a tin someone made for me. The cloth bowls were made using scraps, cut at 1.25 inches wide and adding more scrap strips as I used them up. Wrap the scraps around fabric clothesline cording and zigzag the wrapped cords together, when you want to make a round edge to make sides, just hold up the bottom piece you have already zigzagged together - perpendicular to your sewing machine - so your fabric wrapped cord will go under the sewing foot and the curve will automatically happen as you sew along to make this curve.
