If you’ve never worked with oilcloth, you are going to love it! There are so many super-fun projects you can do with the versatile material. Here are some examples of some great projects made with oilcloth:

I think I would make some kind of bag or zippered travel cases … or a wallet … something like that. I’ve never even seen this kind of fabric so I think I’d have to see it and feel it before I could decide for sure. I’m very interested in it, though, having heard so many raves about it.
I would make as many of the following: a lunch bag, sandwich/snack bags and an apron!

I have a project in mind that I have actually been meaning to buy some oil cloth for. I need a new, and sturdy, table cloth for camping. I want to sew some tie downs on it so it can’t blow away and the windy beach we camp at.
Hello! Thank you for your giveaway! I think I would use the oilcloth to make some sort of zippered wet bag.

You just read my mind. I am all excited to make up some lunch tote for a going green project. The oilcloth would work just perfect!
I would probably make a lunchbag and some kid aprons. And maybe some grocery totes.
what a great giveaway. I’ve wanted to make a shopping bag from oilcloth for ages, but I was a bit nervous about sewing with it. I went to John Lewis and lusted over some Cath Kidstone oilcloth, they said they’d send me a sample so I could try sewing it. When the sample came, it was the same pattern but in cotton! So I never bought any. :0(
And I’m a follower!
I know exactly what I would make with it: a trash bag for my car. Here’s to hoping.

Hi Lindsay,
I have been looking forward to making a bike bag out of this material:)
I love this fabric!

Oilcloth – I’ve never used it before but after reading the website’s info I’m game to try it!
I would make a tote for my grandmother’s rollator/walker – she has some hardware store tool belts on it now and really needs something sturdy, personalized, and PRETTY on it instead. I’m sure she would LOVE for me to make her more than one since it may become a second purse to her with her recent knee surgery.
Or I’d make a market tote for my fruits and veggies. How cool would that be, to have a special, durable, water resistant bag to carry to the farmer’s market and back home!
