Reusable Produce Bags From Old Vellux Blanket

"Are you familiar with the Vellux brand of blankets? Introduced almost sixty years ago, they continue to be a leader in the market today. Even if you're not aware of the name, it's unlikely that you've never seen one or used one. The blanket consists of two layers of a dual density foam melted onto a central membrane and covered with nylon ‘flock’. That central membrane is the mesh that is the focus of this re/upcycling sewing project. If you have an old Vellux blanket that you haven't taken good care of, you can strip it apart and use exterior material for stuffing soft toys and the interior mesh for these easy to make produce bags."
