upcoming projects (when I get the time)

So, I came across this kitchen wet bag the other day (someone who makes cloth diapers mentioned that she was starting to make them, along with matching sets of un-paper towels) and I thought it was the greatest idea. I'm thinking something similar to what is shown in the picture, except with a flap instead of a zipper. That way it can be "closed" where you dont see the contents, but you can one-handedly deposit the rags in.

I'm debating if i can use nylon, or if i need to buy some PUL waterproof fabric.

Also, I am considering turning some of the flat diapers I have into un-papertowels. I was given the flat diapers as a gift, but haven't used them at all as I prefer the prefolds & fitted / pocket diapers. I think one diaper is 27"x27", so I can make 9 "un-paper towels" at 9"x9" each. The flat diapers are thin, and would work about the same as a paper towel for whatever job you would use it for. Plus, the oven wetbag is totally cute.

The best thing about the wet-bag system is when it gets full (2 or 3 days probably?) you just throw the bag into the wash with the rags. (due to this, I will probably make 2 bags).

I'm also going to try and come up with a system for the towels that is as easy as a roll of paper towels. any ideas?

I'm also planning on making some reusable sandwich bags since I bring my lunch to work every day, and we go through plastic bags like crazy.
