I was inspired to make a furry monster lunch bag by a furry monster purse I saw on Craftster. This is how I made it: I simply cut two good sized rectangles and sewed them together right sides to and turned, made 2 smaller rectangles for the front flap constructed the same way, then sewed the flap to the bag, made a strap from self fabric and sewed it on--then I used felt to make the eyes, front fangs, and inner mouth and tongue. The material was a soft, cuddly, blue microfleece. This is a pic of the outside: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/PrincessJenny/monsterlunchbagfront.jpg This is a picture of the inside: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v338/PrincessJenny/monsterlunchbaginside.jpg My 8 yo dd LOVES it!!!! She even tried to sneek it into beg last night to snuggle with. Jen |

You could sew a little pocket inside to put one of those frozen things that help keep the lunch cold. It is beautiful. Dorothy |

Great idea, Dorothy! Thanks all for the kind compliments. Gotta get to work on one for 6 yo dd. She has requested a puppy dog face on hers instead of a monster. Jen |
